BACKGROUND Microbiologically contaminated drinking water is a cause of community-acquired infection, and guidelines for prevention of such infections have been established. Microbes in hospital water can also cause nosocomial infection, yet guidelines for preventing such infections do not exist. The purpose of this review is to assess the magnitude of the problem caused by waterborne nosocomial...

BACKGROUND We estimated the nationwide burden of nosocomial S. aureus bloodstream infection (SA-BSI), a major cause of nosocomial infection, in South Korea. METHODS To evaluate the nationwide incidence of nosocomial SA-BSI, cases of SA-BSI were prospectively collected from 22 hospitals with over 500 beds over 4?months. Data on patient-days were obtained from a national health insurance databa...

We performed a prospective study of bloodstream infection to determine factors independently associated with mortality. Between February 1999 and July 2000, 929 consecutive episodes of bloodstream infection at two tertiary care centers were studied. An ICD-9-based Charlson Index was used to adjust for underlying illness. Crude mortality was 24% (14% for community-onset versus 34% for nosocomial...

A two month study to investigate the incidence of nosocomial infection was conducted in a paediatric gastroenteritis ward of a black academic hospital. Enteric pathogens were identified on admission in 61 (47.2%) of 129 patients; 56 bacterial and 25 viral. Six per cent of patients had a combination of bacterial and viral pathogens. Enteric pathogens most frequently identified on admission were ...

OBJECTIVE This study aims to compare different control charts to monitor the nosocomial infection rate per 1,000 patient-days. METHODS The control charts considered in this study were the traditional Shewhart chart and a variation of this, the Cumulative Sum and Exponentially Weighted Moving Average charts. RESULTS We evaluated 238 nosocomial infections that were registered in the intensive...

Background: Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (SMA) has emerged as an important pathogen capable of causing opportunistic and nosocomial infection. We performed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) lung tissues from mice with pulmonary SMA infection over time via aerosolized intratracheal inhalation to investigate transcription profile changes in SMA-infected lungs.

BACKGROUND Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBLs)-producing bacteria are increasing challenge in the treatment of both community acquired and nosocomial intra-abdominal infections (IAIs). Investigating the characteristics ofpatients with the IAIs caused by ESBL-producing bacteria and assessing the risk factors of ESBLs infection will lead to appropriate therapeutic management. OBJECTIVE To...

The use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for adult patients has increased in recent years. A retrospective cohort study of adult patients undergoing ECMO was performed between 19 February 1985 and 10 October 1995 to evaluate nosocomial infections. Seventy-one evaluable patients underwent ECMO for a total of 799 days. Forty-six infections were identified in 32 (45%) of 71 patients. ...

CONTEXT Experts and policy makers have repeatedly called for universal screening at hospital admission to reduce nosocomial methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection. OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of an early MRSA detection strategy on nosocomial MRSA infection rates in surgical patients. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS Prospective, interventional cohort study conducted...
