Abstract

The Association of State and Territorial Public Health Laboratory Directors has recommended that clinical laboratories screen at least all bloody stools for Escherichia coli O157:H7. We contacted the microbiology supervisors of 230 randomly selected clinical laboratories in the United States and administered a standardized questionnaire regarding stool culture practices. Of the 129 laboratories that performed stool cultures, only 70 (54%) reported screening either all stools or all bloody stools submitted for culture for E. coli O157:H7.
