Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To update the local epidemiological data of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in intensive care units (ICU) by assessing the colonisation incidence rate and the level of cross-transmission. METHODS: Study carried out in both adult ICUs of the university-hospital of Besançon during a 2 years period. Clinical and surveillance specimens were screened for P. aeruginosa. Pulsed-field-gel-electrophoresis was used as...
