Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a unique pathogen with a characteristic hospital epidemiology resulting in colonization and major infectious complications. Institutions of infection control policies including guidelines on surveillance, infection control interventions and environmental decontamination are important preventive measures. In this book, the authors present current research on the symptoms of infection, antibiotic resistance and treatment of pseudomonas aeruginosa. Topics discussed include the mechanisms of antimicrobial resistance and antimicrobial treatment options; chronic pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in cystic fibrosis; and biofilm-forming ability and antimicrobial resistance of pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates of veterinary origin.
