Genomic surveillance of multidrug-resistant organisms based on long-read sequencing Open
We demonstrate that molecular characterization of automatically extracted DNA followed by long-read sequencing is as accurate compared to short-read sequencing and suitable for typing and outbreak analysis as part of genomic surveillance o…

Regional variation in the interpretation of contact precautions for multi-drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria: a cross-sectional survey Open
Contact precautions are interpreted differently between hospitals, leading to regional differences in IPC measures applied in clinical settings. Harmonizing infection-control policies between the hospitals could facilitate patient transfer…

Regional Variation in the Interpretation of Contact Precautions for Multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria: a cross-sectional survey Open
Summary Background Contact precautions (CP) are recommended when caring for patients with carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE), carbapenemase-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CPPA), and extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing En…

Widespread Detection of Yersiniabactin Gene Cluster and Its Encoding Integrative Conjugative Elements (ICE <i>Kp</i> ) among Nonoutbreak OXA-48-Producing <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> Clinical Isolates from Spain and the Netherlands Open
Convergence of multidrug resistance and hypervirulence in Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates has been reported mostly related to sporadic cases or small outbreaks. Nevertheless, little is known about the real prevalence of carbapenem-resistant…

Genomic comparison of <i>mecC</i>-carrying methicillin-resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> from hedgehogs and humans in the Netherlands Open
Objectives MRSA carrying the mecC gene (mecC-MRSA) have been found in humans and animals worldwide. A high carriage rate of mecC-MRSA has been described among hedgehogs in different countries. We performed genomic comparison of mecC-MRSA f…

A genetic cluster of OXA-244 carbapenemase-producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> ST38 with putative uropathogenicity factors in the Netherlands Open
Emergence of urine-associated Escherichia coli ST38 producing OXA-244 harbouring putative uropathogenicity factors in the Netherlands.

A genetic cluster of MDR <i>Enterobacter cloacae</i> complex ST78 harbouring a plasmid containing <i>bla</i>VIM-1 and <i>mcr-9</i> in the Netherlands Open
Background Carbapenemases produced by Enterobacterales are often encoded by genes on transferable plasmids and represent a major healthcare problem, especially if the plasmids contain additional antibiotic resistance genes. As part of Dutc…

Outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in a Nursing Home Associated With Aerosol Transmission as a Result of Inadequate Ventilation Open
Study (WIHS) may have mitigated differences [7].Furthermore, our data, consistent with Collins et al, suggest WLWH accrue chronic diseases at an earlier age than seronegative counterparts.Our study is limited from potential misclassificati…
