Elimination of healthcare-associated Acinetobacter baumannii infection in a highly endemic region

This paper describes the elimination of healthcare-associated Acinetobacter baumannii infections in a highly endemic region. A prospective, observational study was performed between October 2012 and October 2017. Acinetobacter baumannii were isolated from 59 patients, and >95% similarity was demo...
