Longitudinal analysis of bacterial community dynamics in normal hospital ward following patient occupancy

2025-09-21

Abstract excerpt

The hospital microbiome significantly influences patient recovery and clinical outcomes. However, the dynamics of microbial colonization and transmission following initial patient occupancy remain poorly understood. Here, we employed 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing to investigate bacterial community dynamics on surfaces within neurosurgery ward and patients as a new hospital became operational. Our results showe...
