A personalized medicine approach for accurate prediction of BSIs before they occur would contribute to prevention efforts and improve patient outcomes. Methods: We analyzed the blood transcriptome of severely burned (total burn surface area [TBSA] ≥20%) patients in the multicenter Inflammation and Host Response to Injury ("Glue Grant") cohort. Our study included 82 pediatric (aged
