Carriage Of Multiresistant Bacteria After Travel

NCT01676974 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 2215

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Objectives: Prospectively study the influence of foreign travel and associated risk factors on the acquisition of AMR in the endogenous microbiota of healthy individuals and the subsequent persistence of AMR carriage and transmission to household members of these carriers. Examine whether carriers of resistant Enterobacteriaceae have a higher risk of bacterial infections in the year after travel (compared to non-carriers). Explore the full width of AMR genes and transferable genetic elements acquired during international travel.
