Methods for cost-efficient, whole genome sequencing surveillance for enhanced detection of outbreaks in a hospital setting

2024-02-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> Outbreaks of healthcare-associated infections (HAI) result in substantial patient morbidity and mortality; mitigation efforts by infection prevention teams have the potential to curb outbreaks and prevent transmission to additional patients. The incorporation of whole genome sequencing (WGS) surveillance of suspected high-risk pathogens often identifies outbreaks that are not detected by tra...
