Controls were neonates matched for gestational age, birth weight, and year of birth. Isolates were typed using WGS, and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was determined.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0899823X19002022_as5\"><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Bacteremia for case patients occurred at a median time after delivery of 23.5 days (interquartile range, 14.9\u201335.8). Previous described risk factors for nosocomial bacteremia did not contribute to excess risk for VSEfe. WGS typing results designated 43% ST179 as well as 14 other sequence types, indicating a polyclonal outbreak. A multimodal intervention that included education, insertion checklists, guidelines on maintenance and access of central lines, adjustments to the late onset sepsis antibiotic treatment, and the introduction of diaper bags for disposal of soiled diapers after being handled inside the bed, led to termination of the outbreak.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0899823X19002022_as6\"><jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Typing using WGS identified this outbreak as predominately nonclonal and therefore not due to cross transmission.
