Official title
Predictive Value of a Rectal Swab With Detection of Enterobacteria (ESBL-E), Carbapenemases, and High-level Cephalosporinase (HLC) on the Risk of Infections With C3G-resistant Enterobacteria in Intensive Care
Overview
The objective of the research is to evaluate the value of testing for ESBL carriage by rectal swab to predict the risk of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae infections in intensive care.
Primary outcome measures
- Negative predictive value of a negative rectal swab for the risk of infection with ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae [Time frame: Up to 12 months]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria

- Who have been in medical or surgical intensive care at Strasbourg University Hospitals (between January 1, 2024, and January 1, 2025)
- Who have undergone rectal screening for carriage of ESBL/HLC/carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae
Exclusion criteria
- Refusal to participate in the study
Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
