Genomic sequencing surveillance of patients colonized with vancomycin-resistant<i>Enterococcus</i>(VRE) improves detection of hospital-associated transmission

2024-05-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Vancomycin-resistant enterococcal (VRE) infections pose significant challenges in healthcare. Transmission dynamics of VRE are complex, often involving patient colonization and subsequent transmission through various healthcare-associated vectors. We utilized a whole genome sequencing (WGS) surveillance program at our institution to better understand the contribution of clinic...
