21 Jun 2007
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to determine clinical characteristics of coagulase-negative staphylococcal (CoNS) sepsis in neonates, to assess the molecular epidemiology and biofilm forming properties of isolated strains, and to assess antibiotic susceptibility of clonal compared with incidentally occurring strains. METHODS: We performed a retrospective study on late-onset CoNS sepsis in infants in the neonatal...
