Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) is a promising tool for identifying transmission pathways in outbreaks caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria. However, it is uncertain how the data produced by WGS can be best integrated into epidemiologic investigations. METHODS: We tested various genomic analyses to identify clonal groups in two distinct outbreaks of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing...
