Pseudomonas pneumonia, pulmonary infection with the gram-negative pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, is mostly a hospital-acquired pneumonia. Although not the most common, it is the deadliest form of nosocomial pulmonary infection, accounting for about 20% of cases in the intensive care unit (ICU).

Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonization was defined as the persistence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in repeated sputum specimens or bronchoalveolar lavage taken at stable state without clinical evidence of infection and tissue damage within two years before recruitment [15].
aeruginosa infections include bloodstream infections, pneumonia, urinary tract infections, and surgical wound infections. These infections typically affect people who are ill in the hospital, particularly those with weakened immune systems from diseases or long-term treatments.
