Aerobic bacterial profile and antibiotic susceptibility patterns of post-operative wound infections in a tertiary care hospital [PDF]
Background: Post-operative wound infection has been a problem since surgery was started as a treatment modality and is the third most common cause of nosocomial infections with a reported incidence rate of 14-16%.

The Challenge of Bacterial Infections During Intensive Care Unit Stay After Heart Transplantation
Abstract Background Infections occurring in the early post–heart transplant (HT) period heavily contribute to morbidity and mortality. Our goal is to evaluate the incidence of hospital‐acquired pneumonia/ventilator‐associated pneumonia (HAP/VAPs) and/or bloodstream infections (BSIs) after HT during the intensive care unit (ICU) stay and identify their ...
