Abstract

The article discusses the results of a study that examined the nosocomial transmission of New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase-1 (NDM-1)-producing Escherichia coli St101 among patients sharing a hospital room in Korea. It noted that the transmission of the NDM-1 was related to poor hygiene standards in the hospital. Stringent infection control procedures including contact barrier precautions and rigorous cleaning resulted to absence of NDM-1-producing Escherichia coli.
