Abstract:The epidemiology of bacteremia and the antibiotic resistance profile (ARP) of Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) in hematological malignancies (HM) and hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) patients may differ according to geographic region. In addition, multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) may impact mortality. This is a prospective, observational, and multicenter study. The first episodes of bacteremia in adult patients with HM or HSCT were included. The risk factors for 30-day mortality were identified. One t… Show more
