Clinical characteristics and risk factor analysis of recipients with multidrug-resistant bacterial bloodstream infections after liver transplantation: a single-centre retrospective study

Multidrug-resistant bacterial bloodstream infections after liver transplantation tend to occur early in the postoperative period (<30 days) and are associated with high mortality and a lack of specific clinical manifestations. A history of preoperative intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalisation and an international normalised ratio (INR) > 2 may be risk factors for multidrug-resistant bacterial bloodstream infections after liver transplantation.
