Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To clarify the characteristics associated with multi-drug resistant bacteria colonization in Japanese travellers, faecal culture tests were performed before departure and at return in Japanese travellers. Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) was detected half of travelers. This study demonstrated that staying abroad increased the risk of multidrug-resistant organism infection, especially in developing countries, primarily in South Asia. For multidrug-resistant organisms, measures against healthcare-associated infections and recognition of overseas-acquired infections are important. Attention should be focused especially on people returning from high-risk areas.
