We measured droplet aerosol dissemination of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) by sampling air surrounding 10 ventilated patients with CRAB isolated in sputum. Over 70 hours, we sampled 252,000 L of air; CRAB was detected in 39,600 L (16%). CRAB growth was higher during patient care, notably suctioning and sheet changing.
我们通过对 10 例痰培养分离出耐碳青霉烯鲍曼不动杆菌(CRAB)的呼吸机患者周围空气进行采样,测量了 CRAB 液滴气溶胶的传播情况。在 70 多个小时内,我们共采集了 252000 升空气;在 39600 升(16%)空气中检测到了 CRAB。在护理患者时,尤其是吸痰和更换床单时,CRAB 的生长速度更高。
