Trauma-related wound infections among patients admitted to emergency teaching hospital in Duhok province, Iraq

Conclusions: The bacteria that contaminate wounds at the accident time led to serious problems after the admission as they cause wound infection with inappropriate antibiotic administration. It is established that there are differences between the bacterial species detected before and after admission in this study withp= 0.004. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that some species that are isolated prior to the admission of patients turn hostile afterward.
