Risk factors for infections with extended- spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli in a county of Southern Sweden Johan Tham,1 Inga Odenholt,1 Mats Walder,2 Lina Andersson,1 Eva Melander2,3 1Infectious Diseases Unit, Department of Clinical Sciences, Lund University, Malmö, 2Medical Microbiology, Department of Laboratory Medicine, Lund University, Malmö, 3Department of Infection Control, Laboratory Medicine, Skåne County, Sweden Background: It is important to identify patients who are at risk for infections with extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria in order to reduce mortality, to avoid spread of resistant bacteria in hospitals, and to minimize the number of patients receiving unnecessary treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics. A case-control survey among Swedish patients was performed at Skåne University Hospital to identify risk factors for developing an infection with ESBL-producing Escherichia coli in a low endemic country. Methods: We used a computerized database to identify patients with growth of ESBL-producing E. coli (n
