Johnstone J, et al. - Researchers investigated the risk factors for vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) bacteremia via linking all patients with a confirmed VRE bacteremia in Ontario, Canada, between January 2009 and December 2013 to provincial healthcare administrative data sources and frequency matching them to 3 controls based on age, sex, and aggregated diagnosis group. They noted the highest risk of VRE bacteremia for patients with a bone marrow transplant, solid organ transplant, cancer, or who are admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), particularly at large hospitals and teaching hospitals.
