Predictive performance of weekly rectal surveillance cultures and extra-rectal colonization for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales infections in a resource-limited ICU with KPC and NDM co-circulation
In this mixed KPC and NDM CRE setting, weekly rectal surveillance was not a predictor of later infection, while extra rectal colonization retained independent predictive value for overall infection and for bacteremia.
