Rectal Colonization by Drug Resistant Bacteria in Nursing Home Residents in Crete, Greece

Rectal Colonization by Drug Resistant Bacteria in Nursing Home Residents in Crete, Greece

(1) Background: In an area with a high prevalence of multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacteria (MDR-GNB), we investigated the colonization of nursing home residents by such organisms. (2) Methods: A point prevalence study was performed in six nursing homes of the Heraklion area on the island of Cr...
