Longitudinal genomic surveillance of multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli carriage in critical care patients

Longitudinal genomic surveillance of multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli carriage in critical care patients

ABSTRACTColonization with multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli strains causes a substantial health burden in hospitalized patients. We performed a longitudinal genomics study to investigate the colonization of resistant E. coli strains in critically ill patients and to identify evolutionary changes...
