Bacterial Contamination of Inanimate Surfaces and Equipment, Distribution and Susceptibility Patterns in Pediatric Wards at a Northern Tanzania Zonal Referral Hospital

2025-07-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) represent a significant global health concern, contributing to high rates of morbidity and mortality. Globally, bacterial contamination of hospital surfaces and equipment has been identified as a critical pathway for the transmission of nosocomial infections. Despite its significance, the extent of surface and equipment contamination in pediatric wards at Ki...
