Abstract
Objectives
The global disease burden of Salmonella infections in 2017 included 135 900 deaths caused by Salmonella Typhi and Paratyphi and 77 500 deaths caused by invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella, with increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) exacerbating morbidity, mortality and costs. The aim of our systematic review and meta-analysis is to estimate the length of hospital stay and associated treatment costs for patients with susceptible and antibiotic-resistant Salmonella Typhi, Paratyphi and non-typhoidal Salmonella infections.
