An outbreak of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAb) occurred in an interdisciplinary intensive care unit, affecting 10 patients. Within hours of recognition of the spread of CRAb an intervention team was instituted for collection of available data, decision-making, communication and monitoring of all interventions performed, including cohorting, temporary stop of admissions, staff education, and enforcement of infection control measures. An area was defined for cohortation of patients colonized with CRAb, with a separate nursing team and a second set of mobile equipment. New transmissions were no longer observed after only four days into the institution of enhanced infection control measures.
耐碳青霉烯鲍曼不动杆菌(CRAb)的爆发发生在一个多学科重症监护病房,影响了 10 名患者。在发现 CRAb 传播的几个小时内,成立了一个干预小组,负责收集现有数据、决策、沟通和监测所有实施的干预措施,包括群体隔离、临时停止入院、员工教育和实施感染控制措施。为携带 CRAb 的患者划定了一个群体隔离区,配备了一个单独的护理团队和第二套移动设备。在实施强化感染控制措施仅四天后,就不再观察到新的传播。
