Identification of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Isolated From Household Showerheads of Patients With Nontuberculous Mycobacteria

2022-02-08

Abstract excerpt

This study aimed to examine whether nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) inside household showerheads are identical to those in patients with NTM-pulmonary disease (PD) since household water is one of the potential NTM sources. Samples were obtained from 32 household showerheads of patients with NTM-PD recruited through the Pulmonary Outpatient Department at the Severance Hospital between October 2018 and October 201...
