Temporal variations in bacterial community diversity and composition throughout intensive care unit renovations

8 Jun 2020

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Inanimate surfaces within a hospital serve as a reservoir of microbial life that may colonize patients and ultimately result in healthcare associated infections (HAIs). Critically ill patients in intensive care units (ICUs) are particularly vulnerable to HAIs. Little is known about how the microbiome of the ICU is established or what factors influence its evolution over time. A unique opportunity to...
