SUMMARY
Mahmood
NM, Al-Taai
NA, Khalil NK., Prevalence of bacteria isolated from burn wounds, Onl J Vet Res., 27 (1): 23-27, 2023. In
hospitals, burn mortality is mainly due to bacterial contamination by poor
hygiene. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus,
-hemolytic streptococci, E. coli, Klebsiella
spp and coliform bacilli are predominant. Burns can
be superficial or penetrate skin to reach bone. We review pathophysiology of
burn wounds, prevalent bacteria and their correlation with mortality.
Key words: bacteria,
burn, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, wound.
