Prevalence of Multidrug-Resistant and ESBL-Producing Bacterial Pathogens in Patients with Chronic Wound Infections and Spinal Cord Injury Admitted to a Tertiary Care Rehabilitation Hospital.

The most common complication of ulcers is a bacterial infection. Antimicrobial therapy should be selected with caution for spinal cord injury patients since they have a high risk of developing multidrug-resistant (MDR) infections.
