Genomic diversity of hospital-acquired infections revealed through prospective whole genome sequencing-based surveillance

2021-10-28

Abstract excerpt

Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) cause mortality, morbidity, and waste of healthcare resources. HAIs are also an important driver of antimicrobial resistance, which is increasing around the world. Beginning in November 2016, we instituted an initiative to detect outbreaks of HAI using prospective whole genome sequencing-based surveillance of bacterial pathogens collected from hospitalized patients. Here we...
