  1. ESBL extended-spectrum beta-lactamase, ESBL-E extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing Enterobacterales, NA not applicable
  2. 1Five patients in the old building, and seven patients in the new building were ESBL-E positive at admission and ESBL-E negative at discharge
  3. 2Non-significant difference between the old hospital setting and the new hospital setting for admission (P = 0.305), for discharge (P = 0.206), and for acquisition (P = 0.801)
  4. 3Non-significant difference between the old hospital setting and the new hospital setting for admission (P = 0.149), for discharge (P = 0.156), and for acquisition (P = 0.901)
  5. 4One patient was positive at admission but acquired a different ESBL-E during hospitalization and one patient acquired two ESBL-E in the old building. Consequently, there are seven patients who acquired an ESBL-E during hospitalization in the old building, but eight different ESBL-E
