Definitions of HAIs were\nadapted from the CDC\/NHSN. Antibiotic susceptibility test of bacteria was determined according to the EUCAST.\nResults: Among 2,631 patients, 1,075 (40.9%) HAIs were observed. The most frequently reported HAIs were surgical site infections (54%), bone and joint\ninfection (14.2%), pneumonia (12.2%), urinary tract infections (8.6%), bloodstream infections (6.6%), Eye, ear, nose, throat, or mouth infection (4.4%). Risk\nfactor for HAIs were length of stay in ICU, type of injury, intubation, vascular and urinary catheters. The most pathogens isolated from HAIs were Escherichia\ncoli (19.2%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (7.6%), Klebsiella pneumonia (7.3%), Enterococcus faecalis (6.9%), Acinetobacter baumannii (6.6%), Staphylococcus\naureus (5.5%), Serratia marcescens (5.5%). Meticillin resistance was reported in 36.1% of S. aureus, and 15.9% of enterococci were resistant to vancomycin.\nResistance to third-generation cephalosporins was reported in 64.8% K. pneumoniae and in 43.6% E. coli.\nConclusions: This study found a high prevalence of HAIs in patients with combat-related head and neck injuries who has undergone maxillofacial or\/and oral\nsurgery procedures, caused by MDROs, varying depending on the bacterial species, and antimicrobial group.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.36740\/wlek\/225982","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,16]],"date-time":"2026-09-16T09:39:33Z","timestamp":1789551573000},"page":"1529-1539","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Healthcare-associated infections after maxillofacial and oral surgery procedures in patients with combat-related head and neck injuries in Ukraine: results of a multicenter study (2022-2025)"],"prefix":"10.36740","author":[{"given":"Aidyn G.","family":"Salmanov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Igor A.","family":"Lurin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kostiantyn M.","family":"Lykhota","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ihor I.","family":"Palyvoda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kristina","family":"Vatag","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Oleksandr","family":"Yakush","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rostyslav","family":"Dovbenko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roman O.","family":"Mirza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Liudmyla O.","family":"Brodetska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Olha","family":"Kova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Igor Yu.","family":"Savchuk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andriy I.","family":"Romanko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kostiantyn V.","family":"Humeniuk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nataliia","family":"Humeniu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrii V.","family":"Shevchuk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gennadii","family":"Kolov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yevhenii E.","family":"Shcheholkov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mykhailo V.","family":"Knyhin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"22436","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,30]]},"container-title":["Wiadomo\u015bci Lekarskie"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.wiadomoscilekarskie.pl\/pdf-225982-145215","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.wiadomoscilekarskie.pl\/pdf-225982-145215","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,16]],"date-time":"2026-09-16T09:39:37Z","timestamp":1789551577000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.wiadomoscilekarskie.pl\/Healthcare-associated-infections-after-maxillofacial-and-oral-surgery-procedures,225982,0,2.html"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,30]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026]]}},"alternative-id":["225982"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.36740\/wlek\/225982","relation":{},"ISSN":["0043-5147","2719-342X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0043-5147","type":"print"},{"value":"2719-342X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,30]]}}}
