Mucosal barrier injury laboratory-confirmed bloodstream infections lead to significant morbidity, mortality, and healthcare resource utilization in hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients.
Mucosal barrier injury laboratory-confirmed bloodstream infections are associated with increased 1-year nonrelapse mortality after stem cell transplantation.
Patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation develop mucosal barrier injury laboratory-confirmed bloodstream infections at a much higher rate than those undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation.
