In the U.S., hospital-borne antimicrobial-resistant nosocomial infections affect over 700,000 people every year causing more than 90,000 deaths along with a $28-45 billion financial burden. This commonly involves either methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus or carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.
