The Association of State and Territorial Public Health Laboratory Directors has recommended that clinical laboratories screen at least all bloody stools for Escherichia coli O157:H7. We contacted the microbiology supervisors of 230 randomly selected clinical laboratories in the United States and administered a standardized questionnaire regarding stool culture practices. Of the 129 laboratories that performed stool cultures, only 70 (54%) reported screening either all stools or all bloody stools submitted for culture for E. coli O157:H7.
州和地区公共卫生实验室主任协会建议临床实验室至少对所有血便进行大肠杆菌O157:H7筛查。我们联系了美国随机挑选的230家临床实验室的微生物学主管,并发放了一份关于粪便培养操作的标准化问卷。在进行粪便培养的129家实验室中,只有70家(54%)报告称对所有送检培养的粪便或所有血便进行了大肠杆菌O157:H7筛查。
