Abstract excerpt

During a 19-month period from April 1993 to October 1994, 41 isolates of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF) were detected in seven different hospitals in a city in southern Texas. A case-control study to determine the risk factors for acquisition was done in the hospital in which the majority of isolates were detected. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) of whole-cell DNA was used to determine...
