Predictors and outcomes of diabetic foot ulcer infection with ESBL-producing bacteria in a large tertiary center

Abstract [Au?1]: Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe the predictors and outcomes of infection with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria in patients with an acute diabetic foot infection (DFI).Methods: The records of patients admitted with acute DFI to a large tert...
