Acinetobacter baumannii is a well known but relatively uncommon cause of health-care--associated infections. Because the organism has developed substantial antimicrobial resistance, treatment of infections attributed to A. baumannii has become increasingly difficult This report describes an increasing number of A. baumannii bloodstream infections in patients at military medical facilities in which service members injured in the Iraq/Kuwait region during Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and in Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) were treated. The number of these infections and their resistance to multiple antimicrobial agents underscore 1) the importance of infection control during treatment in combat and health-care settings and 2) the need to develop new antimicrobial drugs to treat these infections.
鲍曼不动杆菌是一种已知的、但相对不常见的医疗保健相关感染病原体。由于该菌已产生了很强的抗菌耐药性，治疗由鲍曼不动杆菌引起的感染变得越来越困难。本报告描述了在军事医疗设施中，伊拉克自由行动（OIF）期间在伊拉克/科威特地区受伤以及持久自由行动（OEF）期间在阿富汗受伤的军人接受治疗时，鲍曼不动杆菌血流感染病例数不断增加的情况。这些感染的数量及其对多种抗菌药物的耐药性凸显了1）在战斗和医疗保健环境中治疗期间感染控制的重要性，以及2）开发新的抗菌药物来治疗这些感染的必要性。
