Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Colonization rate with multiresistant (MDR) bacteria in hospitalized patients [ Time Frame: March 2012 - March 2014 ]
    To evaluate the impact of hospitalization for carriage and infection rate with MDR bacteria

  2. Colonization rate with multiresistant (MDR) bacteria in healthy humans [ Time Frame: March 2012 - March 2014 ]
    To evaluate the impact of animal exposure for carriage rate with MDR bacteria


Biospecimen Retention:   Samples With DNA
DNA from isolated multiresistant bacteria
