a Sampling material was documented as multiple choice but evaluated here by selecting the first material mentioned in the order: blood/liquor, urine, wound, screening/stool.
b Infection vs colonisation was inferred from the sampling material (from blood/liquor/urine/wound vs screening/stool, respectively), and from the classification as in the notification if the information on material was missing.
