Description
Five authors, led by Shanfeng Li, chart in 2025 how germs behind catheter blood infections shift over time and by hospital ward. These infections kill often and drug resistant strains are rising. The team reviewed one hundred seventy two confirmed cases from hospital records, with cultures and drug tests from standard lab systems.
Near one in five patients died within twenty eight days. Case rates fell year by year from 2021 to 2024. Kidney, intensive care, and gut wards carried the heaviest load. A risk model for early death was built and graded, aiming at faster warnings for the wards that need them.
