Y1 - 2018 N1 - T2 - Rudolph's Pediatrics, 23e AB - Pasteurella multocida, formerly known as Pasteurella septica, was renamed P multocida or “killer of many” because it affects many different animal species. The first report of human infection caused by P multocida was published in 1919. The primary importance of the organism in pediatrics is in animal bites in which P multocida, alone or in concert with other organisms, is the most common infecting organism.
