Abstract: | Gram-negative infection remains a major contributor to morbidity mortality and cost of care but no multinational epidemiological studies specific to burn patients exist. Mapping these trends would identify pathogens of actual and imminent concern to burn physicians, develop prognostic patient profiles and facilitate the identification of novel targeting mechanisms. We sought to define a contemporary gram-negative burn wound profile and indentify trends in emerging Gram-negative burn wound infections (BWI) within the last 60 years. |
