Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infections after organ transplantation
Transplant Infectious Disease, 09/17/09

Reddy P et al. – Despite a national rise in carbapenem–resistant A. baumannii infections, outcomes among SOT recipients with this emerging MDR pathogen are largely unknown.

The current study suggests that SOT patients with CRAB suffer from prolonged hospitalization, infection with other MDR organisms, allograft dysfunction and loss, and high overall infection–related mortality.
