Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Outbreaks of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) strains is an emerging problem worldwide. Even if still relatively uncommon in European hospitals, infections caused by VRE have also been increasing recently in this continent. METHODS: In this study, we characterized 50 consecutive VRE and 23 vancomycin-sensitive E. faecium (VSE) isolates collected in an Italian hospital. The presence of...
