Abstract

Enteral feeding is a risk factor for cross transmission of microbes. Administration set tubing can be colonized by organisms present in the enteral tube hub; molecular typing has demonstrated genetic relatedness of enteric bacteria isolated from both sites. Strict attention to infection control measures is imperative when handling enteral feed apparatuses.

摘要

肠内营养是微生物交叉传播的一个风险因素。给药装置的管道可能会被存在于肠内管接口处的微生物定植；分子分型已证明从这两个部位分离出的肠道细菌具有基因相关性。在处理肠内喂养设备时，必须严格注意感染控制措施。
