    To describe the change in the epidemiology of health care-associated infections (HAI), resistance and predictors of fatality we conducted a nationwide study in 24 hospitals between 2015 and 2018. The 30-day fatality rate was 22% in 2015 and increased to 25% in 2018. In BSI, a significant increasing trend was observed for Candida and Enterococcus. The highest rate of 30-day fatality was detected among the patients with pneumonia (32%). In pneumonia, Pseudomonas infections increased in 2018. Colistin resistance increased and significantly associated with 30-day fatality in Pseudomonas infections. Among S. aureus methicillin, resistance increased from 31 to 41%.

    Study Group for Viral Hepatitis of the Turkish Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases convened a meeting to develop a consensus report on management of chronic hepatitis in special hosts and special situations. Relevant literature and international guidelines were reviewed, and recommendations agreed are presented at the end of each section such as therapy of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in patients with compensated and decompensated cirrhosis, prevention and therapy of recurrent hepatitis B after liver transplantation, management of fulminant hepatitis B, therapy of CHB in hemodialysis patients, management of CHB in nonliver solid organ transplant recipients, management of CHB in immunosuppressed nontransplant patients, therapy of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) coinfection, management of HBV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection, management of CHB in alcoholic patients and injecting drug users, therapy of CHB in pregnancy and lactation period, extrahepatic manifestations in HBV infection, HBV, HCV and hepatitis D virus coinfection, therapy of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) in patients with compensated and decompensated cirrhosis, treatment of patients with recurrent HCV infection following liver transplantation, therapy of CHC in hemodialysis patients, management of CHC in nonliver solid organ transplant recipients, therapy of HCV, HBV and HIV coinfection, management of CHC in immunosuppressed nontransplant patients, HCV infection and biological agents, HCV infection and chemotherapy, management of CHC in alcoholic patients and injecting drug users, fatty liver and CHC, hemoglobinopathy and CHC, CHC in pregnancy and lactation period, extrahepatic manifestations in HCV infection.
