Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Ireland has been shown to have the highest rate of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) in cases of bacteraemia in Europe, according to a report in 2014 from the European Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System Network. AIM: To investigate the prevalence of VRE gut colonization in a cohort of patients in 2014 at Cork University Hospital (CUH) by performing a cross-sectional study using faecal...
