Integrating patient movement and pathogen genomics to support hospital infection prevention with PathoPath: a method development study

2026-06-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Healthcare-associated infections pose a major burden to neonatal health worldwide and remain difficult to track in low-resource hospitals because patient movement data and pathogen genomic data are rarely integrated into actionable transmission models. Existing approaches are often restricted to specific settings, highly structured electronic health records (EHRs), or analyse...
