Abstract:These findings may add to the understanding of the mechanism of development of destructive changes in lower limb ischemic tissues by the patient's, but not hospital-acquired, bacteria, as well as the generally unsatisfactory results of antibiotic administration in these cases. More aggressive antibiotic therapy targeted at the virulent species should be applied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
