TY - JOUR AU - Sisay, Mekonnen AU - Worku, Teshager AU - Edessa, Dumessa PY - 2019 DA - 2019/05/30 TI - Microbial epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance patterns of wound infection in Ethiopia: a meta-analysis of laboratory-based cross-sectional studies JO - BMC Pharmacology and Toxicology SP - 35 VL - 20 IS - 1 AB - Wound infections are responsible for significant human morbidity and mortality worldwide. Specifically, surgical site infections are the third most commonly reported nosocomial infections accounting approximately a quarter of such infections. This systematic review and meta-analysis is, therefore, aimed to determine microbial profiles cultured from wound samples and their antimicrobial resistance patterns in Ethiopia.
