Control of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

1 Jul 2005

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), such as vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), cause serious infections, especially among high-risk patients in NICUs. When VRE was introduced and transmitted in our NICU despite recommended infection control practices, we instituted active surveillance cultures to determine their efficacy in detecting and controlling spread of VRE among high-risk...
