Abstract excerpt

Infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) are difficult to treat and often life threatening and place a burden on the healthcare system. Minimizing the transmission of MDROs in hospitals is a global priority with genomics proving to be a powerful tool for identifying the transmission of MDROs. To optimize the utility of genomics for prospective infection control surveillance, results must be...
