Burden of Antimicrobial Resistance in Adult Hospitalized Patients With Cancer: A Multicenter Analysis
AMR rates for certain key pathogens were 1.5-2 times greater in hospitalized cancer patients compared to hospitalized noncancer patients. The increased AMR rate in cancer patients highlights the need for enhanced infection prevention and diagnostic stewardship efforts.
