We describe an outbreak of Sphingomonas paucimobilis in 13 newborn infants with septicemia and septic shock. Fifteen available isolates were obtained from patients and distilled water. Pulsed field gel electrophoresis showed that there was a cross-transmission of S. paucimobilis in eleven patients but these types were not the same the isolate obtained from the distilled water. The outbreak was terminated by taking appropriate control measures for infection and change of source of distilled water.
我们描述了 13 例新生儿败血症和感染性休克的少动鞘氨醇单胞菌爆发。从患者和蒸馏水中共获得 15 个可用分离株。脉冲场凝胶电泳显示，11 例患者存在少动鞘氨醇单胞菌的交叉传播，但这些类型与从蒸馏水中获得的分离株不同。通过采取适当的感染控制措施和更换蒸馏水的来源，疫情得到了控制。
