“…Several studies have identified the role of environmental contamination in the transmission of MDRO from the patient to hands and clothes of HCWs leading to further propagation of the organism in the hospital [54][55][56]. In one study which looked at 254 HCW-patient interactions with 52 patients, A baumannii was identified from HCWs hands or gloves in 30% of the interactions (OR 4.78; 95% CI 1.…”

“…One potential source was persistent environmental contamination, such as hospital surfaces and plumbing infrastructure that have been hypothesized as potential reservoirs for MDROs including KPC-Kp. [35][36][37][38][39][40] However, our analysis revealed that only a single patient acquisition could be explained by sequential exposure to a common room that was previously occupied by a donor in their cluster, importantly suggesting that persistent environmental reservoirs in patient rooms contributed minimally to transmission in this setting. While our lack of detailed exposure data outside of patient room and ward prevented us from identifying alternative reservoirs, we note that our approach, which identifies groups of patients with unexplained transmission, is powerful in highlighting patients between whom to look for additional common exposures.…”

“…PFGE was carried out on our strains according to the method described previously with minor modification [48]. Genomic DNA was extracted from the K. pneumoniae isolates, followed by restriction enzyme Xba I (Takara 1093A, Japan) digestion for 2 h. PFGE was performed using a CHEF-Mapper XA PFGE system (Bio-Rad, USA) for 18 h with a switch time 6-36 s. Then DNA fingerprints were revealed by GelRed staining.…”
