Active screening cultures are a helpful tool for identifying patients colonized by MDRO or relevant viruses before HSCT, and for predicting those at risk of developing subsequent pre-engraftment infections. Additionally, active screening may aid in predicting those who are likely to develop subsequent pre-engraftment infections Our findings highlight the importance of pre-transplant screening for high-priority multidrug-resistant pathogens and the application of infection control interventions after HSCT.
