We report a cluster of invasive infections in a neonatal intensive care unit. We describe the clinical course of two infected patients, one of whom died of severe pneumonia after successfully being weaned from ECMO. Environmental analyses failed to yield a common source. Molecular characterization confirmed the homogeneity of both isolates. Rigorous hygiene control and adequate therapy enabled the containment of the cluster.
我们报告了新生儿重症监护病房中的一组侵袭性感染病例。我们描述了两名感染患者的临床病程,其中一名患者在成功脱离体外膜肺氧合(ECMO)后死于重症肺炎。环境分析未找到共同来源。分子特征分析证实了两种分离株的同源性。严格的卫生控制和适当的治疗使得该群组感染得到了控制。
