The transmission of measles in medical settings has become increasingly recognized. Due to the lack of information on nosocomial measles in Mexico we performed a 14 year retrospective study at the Hospital Infantil de México Federico Gómez. The objectives of our study were: a) to determine the frequency of the disease in our hospital; b) to determine the association between nutritional status and risk of acquiring nosocomial measles and c) to establish the relationship between nutritional status and complications in morbidity and mortality due to nosocomial measles. Eighty nine children with nosocomial measles were identified. We observed that patients with severe malnutrition had a greater risk of acquiring nosocomial measles developing complication and dying. The most frequent complication was pneumonia.
麻疹在医疗机构中的传播已日益受到关注。由于墨西哥缺乏关于医院内麻疹的信息，我们在墨西哥费德里科·戈麦斯儿童医院进行了一项为期14年的回顾性研究。我们研究的目的是：a）确定我院该疾病的发病频率；b）确定营养状况与获得医院内麻疹风险之间的关联；c）确定营养状况与医院内麻疹所致发病和死亡并发症之间的关系。共识别出89例医院内麻疹患儿。我们观察到，重度营养不良的患者感染医院内麻疹、发生并发症及死亡的风险更高。最常见的并发症是肺炎。
