Abstract

An outbreak of candida infections involving 12 neonates in a special care baby unit is reported. An investigation of colonization of all the babies in the unit was made together with the sampling of the environment and hands of staff. Resistogram typing of isolates indicated the presence of several strains with probable cross-infection. Transmission was possibly by the hands of staff, but multiple antibiotic therapy may have played a role in the increased incidence of infection in the unit.

摘要

据报道，一家特别护理婴儿病房爆发了念珠菌感染，涉及12名新生儿。对该病房所有婴儿进行了定植调查，并对环境和工作人员的手部进行了采样。分离株的耐药谱分型表明存在几种可能发生交叉感染的菌株。传播可能是通过工作人员的手，但多种抗生素治疗可能在该病房感染发生率增加中起到了作用。
