Implication

Retrospective study analyzes bacterial infections in primary ciliary dyskinesia patients across varying IPC strategies, revealing unexpected prevalence patterns.

Key Points

Investigate bacterial epidemiology at three pediatric primary ciliary dyskinesia centers with different infection prevention practices.
Retrospective observational study from 2016 to 2024
Compared prevalence rates of microorganisms among three pediatric centers
Utilized mixed effects logistic regression for statistical analysis.
Bacterial prevalence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 37%, 32%, and 47% at centers A, B, and C, respectively.
Significantly lowest prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus at center B and highest of Haemophilus influenzae at center A.
Age-based prevalence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa increased starting at age 10.
