- a Results for all included multidrug-resistant organisms are shown (Methicillin-resistant staphylococci, ESBL- and carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales and Macrococcus spp.); missing rows indicate no positive result for this group of multidrug-resistant organisms. Positive results are shown in bold. Details on species, strain and minimal inhibitory concentrations of the isolates are specified in Tables 1 and 2. bDetails on sampling sites are indicated in Additional file 3. cUtensils: transport boxes, transport trolleys, mobile phones / pagers, stethoscopes, thermometers, otoscopes, clippers, ultrasonography devices, scissors / clamps, sharp drops. dOthers: elevator, bath, feeding kitchen, lingerie, staff toilet, pneumatic dispatch system. eIn two sampling sites, two different isolates were found. fIn one sampling site, two different isolates were found.
