Description

This Springer academic text examines biofilms formed on indwelling medical devices, which account for approximately 60% of hospital-associated infections-over one million cases annually in the United States. Device-related biofilm infections significantly extend hospital stays and contribute over one billion dollars yearly to U.S. healthcare costs, making this research critical for medical professionals and researchers. As modern healthcare expands its use of indwelling medical devices, particularly among aging populations, the incidence of biofilm infections continues to rise. The book explores the central problem of microbial biofilm infections on foreign bodies and their propensity to resist treatment, providing essential knowledge for clinicians, immunologists, and healthcare practitioners seeking to understand and combat these persistent infections. This volume is part of the established Springer Series on Biofilms, offering authoritative insights into infection prevention and management strategies.

Key Features

Addresses biofilms responsible for approximately 60% of hospital-associated infections affecting over one million patients annually across U.S. healthcare systems.

Explores how device-related biofilm infections increase hospital stays and contribute over one billion dollars yearly to U.S. hospitalisation costs.

Examines the propensity of microbial biofilm infections to develop on indwelling medical devices used in modern clinical practice.

Part of the established Springer Series on Biofilms, providing peer-reviewed academic research for medical professionals and healthcare practitioners.

Essential reading for immunologists, internal medicine specialists, and healthcare researchers addressing infection control in ageing populations.
