- Most common types of hospital-acquired infections are central-line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) which often lead to Staph infection, Catheter-associated Urinary tract infections (CAUTI) which often lead to E. coli infection, Surgical Site Infection which often leads to Staph or Strep and Ventilator-associated pneumonia which leads to Strep pneumo, H. influenzae, Staph, etc. infections
- Intra-abdominal abscess would most commonly lead to anaerobic, gram-negative infection and while operative wound could lead to Staph or Strep infection you would expect the colostomy to be erythematous, purulent, etc.
