Clinical Characteristics and Prognosis Analysis of Acinetobacter baumannii Bloodstream Infection Based on Propensity Matching

Abstract

Purpose: In view of the fact that Acinetobacter baumannii bloodstream infection(BSI) is a great threat to human survival, early identification of the risk factors affecting prognosis will be of great benefit to the clinic. Patients and Methods: A propensity score matching method was used to collect patients identified with Acinetobacter baumannii BSI from 2016 to 2020 from a reputable hospital in China. Results: A total of 398 patients were considered. According to the 28-day prognosis, they were divided into the survival group 150 (37.7%) and the death group 248 (62.3%), and the prognosis was analyzed. Subsequently, Propensity score matching was adjusted for variables with p-values
