Description of the research topic:

Patients treated on intensive care units frequently suffer from nosocomial infections. It is known that both the environment and staff are also responsible for the colonisation of hospitalised patients. It may be difficult, especially in the case of multidrug resistant bacteria whether they only colonise or infect the patient. Our aim is to study which host and microbial properties contribute to bacterial colonisation and how can the multidrug resistant strains survive in hospitals for months or years. We will complete surveillances to get more knowledge. The isolated strains will be examined by molecular microbiological methods. We will also study the role of bacterial translocation in the development of postoperative infections.
