Study designThe study was carried-out over a 4-month period. Each patient was included only once. Microbiological samples were collected from all residents included; two different approaches were used to investigate ESBLE carriage. LTCF residents were screened for ESBLE carriage with rectal swabbing. Swabs were suspended in 0.5 ml of sterile water and 0.1 ml of the suspension was streaked on Drigalski agar (Bio-Rad, Marnes-la-Coquette, France). A 20 μg cefotaxim disk (Bio-Rad, Marnes-la-Coquette, France) was then applied, and the plated incubated for 18 h at 35 C. Bacteria growing around the cefotaxim disk were identified and tested for ESBL production using the double disk synergy test according to the recommendations of the Antibiogram Committee of the French Society for Microbiology [12]. Urine samples from NH residents were used for screening for ESBLE carriage. Ten microlitre samples of the first morning urine were plated within 1 h of collection on a ChromID ESBL selective agar plate (bioMérieux, Marcy l'Etoile, France), and the plates were incubated at 37 C for 48 h. Bacteria forming colonies were identified using Vitek® 2 Gram-negative Identification Cards (bioMérieux, Marcy l'Etoile, France) and studied for ESBL production as described above.
