Description

Acinetobacter is a group of gram negative bacteria found in soil and water and a common source of infection in patients, primarily in intensive care units and healthcare settings with very ill patients. Among the Acinetobacter species, Acinetobacter baumannii accounts for about 80% of reported infections. Symptoms range from pneumonia to serious blood or wound infections. Acinetobacter-related infections rarely occur outside of healthcare settings. Acinetobacter species are resistant to many classes of antibiotics, so treatment is determined on a case-by-case basis.
