Pre-existing DM significantly increases the risk of developing an HAI in patients following burn injury, but does not significantly impact the risk of inpatient mortality. Further understanding of the immune modulatory mechanism of burn injury and DM is imperative to better attenuate the acquisition of HAIs.
