Abstract

Abstract The role of outpatient clinics as a potential transmission ground for multidrug-resistant organisms has not been adequately investigated. Here, we report a transmission cluster of blaKPC-2-positive Enterobacter cloacae among patients treated in a highly frequented outpatient department.
