High incidence of pulmonary bacterial co‐infection in children with severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis
TL;DR: Up to 40% of children with severe RSV bronchiolitis requiring admission to the PICU were infected with bacteria in their lower airways and were at increased risk for bacterial pneumonia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective decontamination of the digestive tract reduces bacterial bloodstream infection and mortality in critically ill patients. Systematic review of randomized, controlled trials
TL;DR: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of selective decontamination of the digestive tract was undertaken, showing an even larger impact of SDD using parenteral and enteral antimicrobials on overall bloodstream infections, bloodstream infections due to gram-negative bacteria and overall mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
