Abstract

Carbapenem-non-susceptible P. aeruginosa (PA) infections are a significant problem in acute care facilities, but the epidemiology is not well understood. The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for infection with carbapenem-non-susceptible PA versus susceptible counterparts in a diverse group of infection types in the acute care setting.
