1. 16. Pathogen colonisation, transmission and infection control measures in burn patients

   Författare :Marie Lindblad; Fredrik Huss; Jyrki Vuola; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Whole-genome sequencing; Burn injury; Acinetobacter baumannii outbreak; infection control prevention; UVC decontamination;

   Sammanfattning : Burn patients are susceptible to infections due to impaired natural defences when the epidermal barrier is damaged. Moreover, the trauma affects the patient's immune system through local and systemic inflammatory reactions. Adding to that, the need for intensive care treatment with multiple surgical interventions increases the risk of infection. LÄS MER
