Genome-based typing reveals rare events of patient contamination with Pseudomonas aeruginosa from other patients and sink traps in a medical intensive care unit

2022-08-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> We used genome-based typing data with the aim of identifying the routes of acquisition of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) by patients hospitalized in a medical intensive care unit (MICU) over a long period in a non-epidemic context. Methods This monocentric prospective study took place over 10 months in 2019 in a 15-bed MICU that applies standard precautions of hygiene. Lockable sink traps insta...
