Acinetobacter pneumonia: a review.

Joshua D Hartzell1, Andrew S Kim, Mark G Kortepeter, Kimberly A Moran.   

Abstract

Acinetobacter species are becoming a major cause of nosocomial infections, including hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated pneumonia. Acinetobacter species have become increasingly resistant to antibiotics over the past several years and currently present a significant challenge in treating these infections. Physicians now rely on older agents, such as polymyxins (colistin), for treatment. This paper reviews the epidemiology, treatment, and prevention of this emerging pathogen.
