Molecular Analysis of Bacterial Contamination on Stethoscopes in an Intensive Care Unit

BACKGROUND: Culture-based studies, which focus on individual organisms, have implicated stethoscopes as potential vectors of nosocomial bacterial transmission. However, the full bacterial communities that contaminate in-use stethoscopes have not been investigated. METHODS: We used bacterial 16S rRNA...
