Abstract
We describe the prevalence of and risk factors for colonization with extended-spectrum (3-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-EB) in the long-term care facility (LTCF) setting. Colonization prevalence differed significantly across the 3 LTCFs evaluated in the study, with recent use of levofloxacin and fecal incontinence demonstrating borderline significant associations with ESBL-EB colonization.Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol2012;33(3):302-304
