Abstract excerpt

We present the case of a hospitalized pediatric patient with short bowel syndrome who was dependent upon total parenteral nutrition for 17 months. Shortly after admission she became colonized with vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) and developed 12 distinct episodes of serious infection associated with it. The course of VRE colonization and infections in this patient was studied through analysis of...
