Spatiotemporal dynamics of multidrug resistant bacteria on intensive care unit surfaces
8 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Bacterial pathogens that infect patients also contaminate hospital surfaces. These contaminants impact hospital infection control and epidemiology, prompting quantitative examination of their transmission dynamics. Here we investigate spatiotemporal and phylogenetic relationships of multidrug resistant (MDR) bacteria on intensive care unit surfaces from two hospitals in the United States (US) and...
