Abstract

[...]generation cephalosporin-resistant P. aeruginosa Two studies [41, 45] reported an increased risk for third-generation cephalosporin-resistant P. aeruginosa for the following factors: transfer from outside facility, prior use of antibiotics (e.g. extended-spectrum cephalosporins, extended-spectrum penicillin, or quinolones or amikacin). [...]the study inclusion criteria were limited to published studies indexed in English. [...]studies eligible for inclusion were heterogeneous with respect to the definition of exposure, site of infection with P. aeruginosa, and risk factors included in the study. [...]a combined meta-analysis may misrepresent the true picture.
