Summary

This study aims to evaluate the impact of contact isolation on the rate of hospital-acquired transmissions of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) and the rate of colonization and infection. On the basis of this study, it will be possible to re-evaluate the need for contact isolation for patients colonized or infected with ESBL-EC.
