Clinical Significance of Organ Preservation Fluid Cultures in Pediatric Abdominal Solid Organ Transplantation

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
In this pediatric abdominal solid organ transplant cohort, preservation fluid‐related infections were rare but occurred in infant liver transplant recipients whose preservation fluid cultures grew pathogenic organisms. These findings suggest that routine bacterial preservation fluid cultures may be most useful for identifying clinically significant ...

Aetiology and Antibiotic Susceptibility of Common Bacterial Infections in Hospitalised Patients: A 2019 Multisite Cross‐Sectional Survey in Jakarta, Indonesia

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To describe the aetiology and antibiotic susceptibility patterns of common bacterial infections in hospitalised patients in Jakarta, Indonesia. Methods We conducted a hospital‐wide point prevalence survey in six hospitals in 2019, capturing data from routinely ordered bacterial cultures taken before the start of antibiotic treatment.
