Clinical Trial: Wastewater Surveillance for Carbapenem-Resistant Organism Outbreak Prediction in a Chinese Tertiary Hospital

U.S., Sept. 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07804433) titled 'Wastewater Surveillance for Carbapenem-Resistant Organism Outbreak Prediction in a Chinese Tertiary Hospital' on Sept. 01.

Brief Summary: Carbapenem-resistant organisms (CRO) pose a critical threat to global public health, and hospitals serve as major epicenters for their emergence and spread. Traditional clinical infection surveillance often detects CRO outbreaks only after infections have already occurred, missing the window for early intervention. Wastewater-based epidemiology has demonstrated its early warning potential during the COVID-19 pandemic and is increasingly recognized as a promising tool for antimicrobial resistance s...
