Variables determining mortality in patients with Acinetobacter baumannii meningitis/ventriculitis treated with intrathecal colistin

Highlights • Mortality of CNN infections caused by multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii is high. • Old age and failure to provide CSF sterilisation increased all-cause mortality. • There were no significant predictors of meningitis-related mortality.
