Summary

This study helps U.S. healthcare centers figure out if patients are getting NTM lung infections from the hospital environment. Researchers will compare germs from patients' lungs with germs from water and dust in the hospital and homes. The goal is to create a standard method to detect and stop these outbreaks. About 100 patients and their healthcare centers will take part.
