Abstract excerpt
1 <h4>Background</h4> Antimicrobial resistance is a significant global threat, posing major public health risks and economic costs to healthcare systems. Bacterial cultures are typically used to diagnose healthcare-acquired infections (HAI); however, culture-dependent methods provide limited presence/absence information and are not applicable to all pathogens. Next generation sequencing (NGS) has the capacity to...
