Deskripsi
Sukhum, Newcomer et al. evaluate reservoirs of antibiotic-resistant organisms within the built environment and patient samples from an established and a newly-built intensive care unit. The authors demonstrate colonization of sink drains and other sites and show relatedness between environmental reservoirs and patient infections.
