Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The identification of all cases (44 patients) was carried out from the database of microbiology, University Hospital Reina Sofía and the University Hospital of Jerez. For the identification of controls, in case of neutropenic patients, all colonized patients that were included during the study period did not receive any decolonitation treatment; in case of non-neutropenic patients it was studied a paired control by the presence of risk factors that indicated the beginning of decolonitation treatment.

* Surgery in two weeks
* Transplant in two weeks
* Require medical intervention or has a clinical situation that may predispose to the development of a serious infection (chemotherapy, immunosuppression or neutropenia)
* Recurrent or severe infections
* Institution admission
* Fragile patients at high risk of readmission.

Exclusion Criteria
