Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To describe the investigation and molecular characterization of a vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF) strain responsible for a nosocomial outbreak in the haematology unit of a tertiary-care university hospital. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Two patients admitted to the haematolog...
