Description:
Multidrug resistant organisms (MDROs) are a threat to health and can be spread in healthcare facilities. The CDC emerging MDRO threat report in 2019 highlight types of organisms on the rise and ways to prevent transmission of these organisms. Following infection prevention practices can reduce the spread of MDROs and prevent infections of MDROs. It is also important to educate on ways the COVID-19 pandemic may influence the emergence of MDROs. Negative implications including increased use of antibiotics throughout the pandemic may influence the potential rise of MDROs in healthcare.
