Detection of temporal clusters of health care-associated infections or colonizations with Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

2016

International audience; We investigated temporal clusters of Pseudomonas aeruginosa cases between 2005 and 2014 in 1 French university hospital, overall and by ward, using the Kulldorff method.

Our results suggest that water outlets are not closely involved in the occurrence of clusters of P aeruginosa cases.

Joprojām paliek neskaidrs, kas ietekmē dinamisku bakteriēmiju pieaugumu – izmaiņas patogēnsspecifiskā transmisijā, virulencē vai rezistencē, novecojusi populācija vai pārmērīgi kompleksa medicīnas aprūpe vai visu faktoru kombinācija. Viena no iespējām ir baktērijas adaptīvie atbildes mehānismi – antimikrobiālās rezistences veidošanās.
