Characteristics and Evolution of Microbial Drug Resistance in Burned Patients

Journal of Burn Care & Research
Abstract Wound infection is a serious complication in burn injury, which is a common form of trauma and an important public health issue. We investigated samples from burn and nonburn wounds for microbial characteristics and temporal trends of antibiotic resistance. Wound samples were collected from 369 burned patients and 927 non-burned
