| Core Tip |
This study reveals a notable prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii colonization in neonatal intensive care units. The analysis revealed a pooled prevalence of 4.8% in neonates, with a considerable gap in research on healthcare workers colonization and a 2.3% prevalence in environmental samples. The substantial heterogeneity across studies and the observed regional variations underlines the need for more targeted research. |
