Genetic characteristics and risk factors of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli in Chinese intensive care unit: a prospective molecular epidemiology study

ABSTRACT In this 4-month-long prospective observational study, we explored the colonization rate of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) in the patient and ward environment of an intensive care unit (ICU). Additionally, we evaluated the risk factors for colonization and...
