Risk Factors and Molecular Epidemiology of Fecal Carriage of Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae in Patients with Liver Disease

Abstract: Background Carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) colonization is a risk factor for CRE infection. CRE infection results in an increase in mortality in patients with cirrhosis. However, minimal data regarding the prevalence of CRE colonization in patients with liver disease yet without liver transplantation are available.
