Assessing Rates of Co-Resistance and Patient Outcomes in Multidrug-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Abstract excerpt

We studied antibiotic co-resistance patterns in a national group of hospitalized patients with infections due to multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a type of bacteria that resists treatment to at least three classes of antibiotics. Co-resistance to antibiotic classes most typically used for treatment was common, which makes selecting appropriate antibiotics to successfully treat the infections...
