Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) bloodstream infection (BSI) is a common complication in patients with acute leukemia (AL), and the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant strains poses a serious problem. However, there is limited information regarding antibiotic resistance, clinical characteristics, and outcomes of PA BSI in AL patients. This study explored characteristics associated with the clinical outcomes of AL patients with PA BSI and analyzed factors associated with BSI caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) or carbapenem-resistant strains.
