Tracking Epidemiological Characteristics and Risk Factors of Multi-Drug Resistant Bacteria in Intensive Care Units.

The number of bacteria, multiple invasive procedures, LOS, and Hb were the independent predictors associated with MDR pathogens. Our nomogram is potentially useful for predicting the occurrence of MDR infection. Besides, we also identify XDR and TP as the independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality with MDR infection. The current prevalence of MDR strains was also described. The results will contribute to the identification and preventive management of patients at increased risk of infection.
