Surveillance and Genomic Characterisation of Colistin-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria in the Drains of High-Risk Hospital Units
The presence and persistence of bacterial ColR-GN clones in the sink and shower drains of high-risk hospital units highlights the importance of monitoring such environments for antibiotic-resistant bacteria to identify reservoirs and prevent further spread.
