High Prevalence of Carbapenemase-Producing <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> in Wound Infections, Ghana, 2017/2018

High Prevalence of Carbapenemase-Producing <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> in Wound Infections, Ghana, 2017/2018

Three years after a prospective study on wound infections in a rural hospital in Ghana revealed no emergence of carbapenem-resistant bacteria we initiated a new study to assess the prevalence of multidrug-resistant pathogens. Three hundred and one samples of patients with wound infections were analy...
