Issue Date: | 2018 | Journal: | Critical Care | Abstract: | Background: We examined whether long-term use of selective digestive tract decontamination (SDD) was effective in reducing intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired infection and antibiotic consumption while decreasing colistin-,tobramycin-, and most of the antibiotic-resistant colonization rates in a mixed ICU with a high endemic level of multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDRB). | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/41344 | ISSN: | 1466-609X | DOI: | 10.1186/s13054-018-2057-2 | Source: | Critical Care [ISSN 1466-609X], v. 22 (141) |
