Methods: We performed a large multicenter, retrospective cohort study including onco-hematological neutropenic patients with PA BSI conducted across 34 centers in 12 countries (January 2006−May 2018). Episodes occurring in hematologic patients were compared to those developing in patients with ST. Risk factors associated with 30-day mortality were investigated in both groups. Results: Of 1217 episodes of PA BSI, 917 occurred in patients with HM and 300 in patients with ST. Hematological patients had more commonly profound neutropenia (0.1 × 109 cells/mm) (67% vs. 44.6%; penAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Pseudomonas aeruginosabacteremiabloodstream infectioncancerhematologic malignancysolid tumorPseudomonas aeruginosa Bloodstream Infections in Patients with Cancer: Differences between Patients with Hematological Malignancies and Solid Tumors.research article36297188open access10.3390/pathogens11101132PMC9610728https://www.mdpi.com/2076-0817/11/10/1132/pdf?version=1664533122https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9610728/pdf
