Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Cumulative incidences will be calculate by dividing the number of travellers<br /><br>diagnosted with a positive resistent Enterobacteriaceae by the number of<br /><br>travellers at risk per continent. The incidence rate of positive resistent<br /><br>Enterobacteriaceae will be calculate by dividing the number of travellers with<br /><br>a positive resistent Enterobacteriaceae by the total travel duration in person<br /><br>days. To determine risk factors for contracting a positive resistent<br /><br>Enterobacteriaceae, a logistic regression model will be used.</p><br>
