Sinks in Healthcare Facilities Are a Potential Source for Dissemination of Candida Species

BACKGROUND: Healthcare facility sinks have been implicated in transmission of bacterial pathogens, including multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacilli. However, it is not known if sinks might also be an important source for dissemination of Candida species. METHODS: In 4 Cleveland area hospitals, we...
