Clinical Features and Outcomes of Pasteurella multocida Infection.

Pasteurella multocida, a zoonotic infectious organism, has most often been described in patients after an animal bite. Here, we characterize the clinical features and outcomes of P multocida infection in a large cohort of patients according to the presence or absence of an animal bite.We retrospectively searched MUSC's laboratory information system for all patients with positive P multocida cultures from 2000 to 2014.
