Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), particularly vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm), have emerged among the leading pathogens causing hospital-acquired infections worldwide. We aimed to examine whether there were newly introduced clones contributing to this increase and to assess the risk factors for mortality in patients with VREfm bacteraemia. METHODS: Between 2003 and 2010, all...
