How would you translate this in the context? Many thanks!
É interessante sublinhar que, en-quanto a história prévia de antibioterapia é o fator preditor mais importante para as infeções por ESBL, a demora média de internamento parece ser o principal fator de risco para a colonização por estes agentes

his statistic shows the average length of stay in community hospitals in the U.S. in 2016, sorted by state. In that year, the average length of a hospital stay in Wyoming was 8.8 days, compared to just 4.8 days in Arizona.

the average wait for hospital admission
It seems to me that internamento is being used in the sense of hospital admission. The longer a patient has to wait to be admitted, the higher the risks of infection.

Hmmm. Not so sure.

For example, the average wait for hospital admission for residents of health authority may be no different from the national average.
Discussion
Designadamente:
Os agentes que produzem beta-lactamase de espectro ampliado (ESBL), principalmente Klebsiella spp e E.coli estão envolvidos em infecções adquiridas em UTI, particularmente infecções respiratórias e urinárias.
Estou sem tempo agora, mas talvez valha a pena ver algumas estatísticas de contaminação por ESBL para ter certeza.
"How is ESBL spread? Most ESBL infections are spread by direct contact with an infected person's bodily fluids (blood, drainage from a wound, urine, bowel movements, or phlegm). They can also be spread by contact with equipment or surfaces that have been contaminated with the germ." https://www.mskcc.org/cancer-care/patient-education/extended...
