Description

INTRODUCTION
Previous research within the Beaumont Infectious Diseases Research Program found an increase in antibiotic resistance in adult males versus females. Furthermore, there is a peak in resistance in 18-29-year-old males, not seen in females. The origin of this early peak of antibiotic resistance in adults is unclear. This study examines these trends in the pediatric patient population.
