An outbreak of diarrheal disease due to Yersinia enterocolitica serotype 0:5 , biotype 1, involved nine hospitalized patients. The possible source of this infection was two patients who were both hospitalized with a history of several weeks of intermittent diarrhea. Person-to-person contact was the probable mode of transmission of the disease. The present report describes the second known nosocomial outbreak of infection due to Y. enterocolitica, Serotype 0:5 of Y. enterocolitica is not commonly encountered, and its involvement in an outbreak of gastroenteritis has not been previously reported. The importance of the enrichment technique in the isolation of Y. enterocolitica is demonstrated.
一起由小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌0:5血清型、生物1型引起的腹泻病暴发涉及9名住院患者。此次感染的可能源头是两名均因间歇性腹泻数周病史而住院的患者。人传人可能是该疾病的传播方式。本报告描述了第二起已知的由小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌引起的医院感染暴发。小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌0:5血清型并不常见，此前也未报告过其与肠胃炎暴发有关。文中展示了富集技术在分离小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌中的重要性。
