Main Article Content
Аннотация:
The comparative analysis of antibiotic susceptibility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from burn wounds addresses a pivotal concern in managing infections among patients with severe burn injuries. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a highly adaptable opportunistic pathogen, frequently implicated in nosocomial infections, particularly among immunocompromised individuals. Burn wounds create an ideal environment for bacterial colonization, leading to high infection rates and considerable morbidity and mortality—indeed, more than 75% of burn-related deaths are attributed to bacterial complications.
