Abstract

The article focuses on a study which tries to identify the risk factors associated with the infection of multiple antibiotic-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MARPA) in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). The fiver-year study revealed that risk factors for MARPA include diabetes, long-term inhaled tobramycin usage, and frequent acute pulmonary exacerbations requiring hospitalization or IV antibiotics.
