In a large, multicenter, contemporary, 8-year, cohort study, one third of allogeneic-hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients with (PSA) infection developed a recurrent infection within 3 months. Antibiotic treatment duration of ≥14 days was the only significantly associated variable with reduced recurrence rates of PSA infections in allogeneic-HCT recipients.
