Feasibility Study on Risk Stratification for Multidrug-Resistant Organism Infections Among ICU Patients in the United Arab Emirates

This study provides preliminary insights into potential risk factors for MDRO infections in ICU of UAE population, such as the need for tube feeding and tracheostomy. The study successfully demonstrated the feasibility of data collection and stratification of patients. The observed trends support the need for a larger, adequately powered study to validate these risk factors and to facilitate the development of a predictive risk assessment tool.
