Whole Genome Sequencing Applications in Hospital Epidemiology and Infection Prevention

2024-01-19

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Purpose of Review Whole genome sequencing is increasingly used in epidemiologic surveillance in healthcare centers, shedding new light on the transmission of healthcare-associated infections. As processing times for these technologies shorten, the ability to use sequencing data for targeted infection prevention is seemingly attainable and of great interest to infection prevention practitioners in an era o...
