Core Tip Multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) pose a significant threat to hospital care, particularly in high-burden settings such as India, contributing substantially to antimicrobial resistance-related morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to evaluate clinical outcomes associated with MDRO isolation in a tertiary-care hospital and to identify actionable gaps to strengthen infection prevention and targeted antimicrobial stewardship. A key finding was that while isolation did not significantly reduce mortality among Intensive care unit (ICU) patients, it was associated with significantly longer ICU and hospital length of stay.
