From June to September 1988, an outbreak of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in neutropenic patients admitted to the Haematological Wards of Ospedali Riuniti in Bergamo, Italy, was detected. Out of 11 cases of P. aeruginosa infections, 8 were bacteremic. Of these, 7 died within few days of onset (mortality rate: 87.5%). Consequently, possible sources of infection were investigated, and moist areas of the hospital environment were shown to be highly contaminated by P. aeruginosa. A clinical and microbiological follow-up of patients admitted to the Haematological Wards was performed for a 10 month period following the outbreak. Adequate measures for cleaning and disinfection were shown to reduce the frequency of P. aeruginosa hospital infections. 相似文献

An outbreak of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections affecting 17 patients was detected in the 27-bed intensive care unit (ICU) of a community hospital from 1 July to 30 September 2003. An ambidirectional cohort study was conducted to identify the risk factors for infection. Nosocomial infections were defined using the criteria of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Random arbitrary polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction was used for genotypic characterization. Logistic regression analyses demonstrated that case patients were more likely than non-cases to have had a longer stay in the ICU, and to have undergone mechanical ventilation and antimicrobial treatment. The multi-variate analysis identified recent bronchoscopy [risk ratio (RR) 3.8, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.5-3.9] and exposure to an infected patient (RR 2.9, 95% CI 1.1-3.7) as independent risk factors. Molecular analysis showed that of the nine isolates available, four patients had a similar strain. The factor with the strongest influence on the risk of death was infection with P. aeruginosa (RR 2.1, 95% CI 1.0-2.4, P=0.04). A combined infection control strategy was implemented, including strict compliance with isolation precautions and recommendations for cleaning and disinfecting bronchoscopes, and a sharp reduction in the incidence of P. aeruginosa infection followed. It is thought that this outbreak was caused by patient-to-patient transmission and infection from a common source, i.e. the flexible bronchoscope. 相似文献

In 2002, Norway experienced a large outbreak of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in hospitals with 231 confirmed cases. This fuelled intense public and professional debates on what were the causes and who were responsible. In epidemiology, other sciences, in philosophy and in law there is a long tradition of discussing the concept of causality. We use this outbreak as a case; apply various theories of causality from different disciplines to discuss the roles and responsibilities of some of the parties involved. Mackie's concept of INUS conditions, Hill's nine viewpoints to study association for claiming causation, deterministic and probabilistic ways of reasoning, all shed light on the issues of causality in this outbreak. Moreover, applying legal theories of causation (counterfactual reasoning and the "but-for" test and the NESS test) proved especially useful, but the case also illustrated the weaknesses of the various theories of causation. We conclude that many factors contributed to causing the outbreak, but that contamination of a medical device in the production facility was the major necessary condition. The reuse of the medical device in hospitals contributed primarily to the size of the outbreak. The unintended error by its producer – and to a minor extent by the hospital practice – was mainly due to non-application of relevant knowledge and skills, and appears to constitute professional negligence. Due to criminal procedure laws and other factors outside the discourse of causality, no one was criminally charged for the outbreak which caused much suffering and shortening the life of at least 34 people. 相似文献

There is little published evidence regarding whether heparin lock solutions containing preservatives prevent catheter-related infections. However, adverse effects from preservative-containing flushes have been documented in neonates, leading many hospitals to avoid their use altogether. Infection control records from 1982 to 2008 at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (SJCRH) were reviewed regarding the incidence of catheter-related infections and the use of preservative-containing intravenous locks. In addition, the antimicrobial activities of heparin lock solution containing the preservatives parabens (0.165%) or benzyl alcohol (0.9%), and 70% ethanol were examined against Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans, and compared with preservative-free saline with and without heparin. Growth was assessed after exposure to test solutions for 0, 2, 4 and 24h at 35 °C. The activities of preservatives were assessed against both planktonic (free-floating) and sessile (biofilm-embedded) micro-organisms using the MBEC Assay. Infection control records revealed two periods of increased catheter-related infections, corresponding with two intervals when preservative-free heparin was used at SJCRH. Heparin solution containing preservatives demonstrated significant antimicrobial activity against both planktonic and sessile forms of all six microbial species. Ethanol demonstrated the greatest antimicrobial activity, especially following short incubation periods. Heparin lock solutions containing the preservatives parabens or benzyl alcohol, and 70% ethanol demonstrated significant antimicrobial activity against both planktonic and sessile micro-organisms commonly responsible for catheter-related infections. These findings, together with the authors' historical infection control experience, support the use of preservatives in intravenous lock solutions to reduce catheter related infections in patients beyond the neonatal period. 相似文献

We describe an outbreak of nosocomial endophthalmitis due to a common source, which was determined to be trypan blue solution prepared in the hospital's pharmacy service. We assume that viable bacteria probably gained access to the trypan blue stock solution during cooling after autoclaving. The temporal cluster of Pseudomonas aeruginosa endophthalmitis was readily perceived on the basis of clinical and microbiological findings, and an exogenous source of contamination was unequivocally identified by means of DNA fingerprinting. 相似文献

An outbreak of a multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa producing metallo-β-lactamase (MBLPA) in a haemato-oncology unit was controlled using multidisciplinary interventions. The present study assesses the effects of these interventions by active surveillance of the incidence of MBLPA infection at the 1,240-bed tertiary care Kyoto University Hospital in Kyoto, Japan. Infection control strategies in 2004 included strengthening contact precautions, analysis of risk factors for MBLPA infection and cessation of urine collection. However, new MBLPA infections were identified in 2006, which prompted enhanced environmental cleaning, routine active surveillance, and restricting carbapenem usage. Between 2004 and 2010, 17 patients in the unit became infected with indistinguishable MBLPA strains. The final five infected patients were found by routine active surveillance, but horizontal transmission was undetectable. The MBLPA outbreak in the haemato-oncology unit was finally contained in 2008. 相似文献

This paper describes an outbreak of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas putida that occurred in an oncohaematology paediatric unit between January and April 2005. Eight children had nosocomial infections due to P. aeruginosa (N=5) or P. putida (N=3), which were recovered from central venous catheter blood cultures (N=4), the catheter exit site alone (N=2), or the catheter exit site and the catheter tip (N=2). Subsequent investigation showed that contaminated water outlets represented the possible source of spread. Studies of nursing and environmental cleaning practices revealed two modes of catheter contamination. A reduction in the size of the catheter dressing at the exit site gave less protective cover during showers, and a detergent-disinfectant diluted with tap water had contaminated perfusion bottles. Repetitive intergenic consensus polymerase chain reaction indicated two discrete patterns for P. aeruginosa and one for P. putida. The water network was chlorinated, and disposable seven-day filters were fitted on all taps and showers. Due to the deleterious effects of chlorination on the water network and the cost of the weekly filter change, a water loop producing microbiologically controlled water was installed. In addition, the concentration of the detergent-disinfectant was increased and refillable sprayers were replaced with ready-to-use detergent-disinfectant solution for high-risk areas. Following these measures, no Pseudomonas spp. have since been isolated in clinical or environmental samples from the ward. 相似文献

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a bacterium responsible for severe nosocomial infections, life-threatening infections in immunocompromised persons, and chronic infections in cystic fibrosis patients. The bacterium''s virulence depends on a large number of cell-associated and extracellular factors. Cell-to-cell signaling systems control the expression and allow a coordinated, cell-density-dependent production of many extracellular virulence factors. We discuss the possible role of cell-to-cell signaling in the pathogenesis of P. aeruginosa infections and present a rationale for targeting cell-to-cell signaling systems in the development of new therapeutic approaches. 相似文献

A case-control study was done to evaluate factors associated with nosocomial infections by multiresistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MRPA). Results showed that MRPA was associated with the use of immunosuppressive and antimicrobial drugs. Five typing methods indicated that the MRPA infections were due to multiple strains rather than a single strain. 相似文献
