Description

Biofilm-related infections are a major challenge in modern healthcare. Approximately 60% of all hospital-associated infections, totaling over one million cases annually, stem from biofilms forming on indwelling medical devices. These infections lead to longer hospital stays and contribute more than one billion dollars every year to U.S. hospitalization costs. As the use of various indwelling medical devices continues to expand, particularly with an aging population, the frequency of these infections is expected to rise. This volume of research is essential for understanding the central problem of microbial biofilm infections on foreign bodies and their tendency to persist. This book, part of the Springer Series on Biofilms (Volume 3), provides necessary information for medical professionals and researchers studying the impact of biofilms on patient outcomes and healthcare economics.

Key Features

Addresses the critical issue of biofilm formation on indwelling medical devices in clinical settings.

Provides data on the economic impact of biofilm infections, which cost over one billion dollars annually in the U.S.

Explores the rising incidence of infections linked to the increasing use of medical devices in aging populations.

Offers insights into the one million annual cases of hospital-associated infections caused by biofilms.

Serves as part of the specialized Springer Series on Biofilms for academic and professional study.
