Abstract

Acinetobacter baumannii is a conditional pathogen, which is widely distributed in nature and can survive in hospital environment for a long time. It has the characteristics of strong survivability and resistance, high colonization rate and bacterial resistance rate. Acinetobacter baumannii is the main pathogen causing opportunistic and nosocomial infections. It is second only to Pseudomonas aeruginosa in non-fermentative bacteria. Compared with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii has a more serious drug resistance situation. After extensive burns, patients destroy the skin's natural barrier, making the body lose the ability to resist bacteria, which is very easy to cause infection, and affect the survival rate of skin grafting and therapeutic effect. In order to provide some reference for clinical infection control and rational use of antimicrobial agents by clinicians, the common treatment methods of burn wound infection and the drug resistance characteristics of Acinetobacter baumannii were discussed in this paper.
