Epidemiological investigation of nosocomial outbreak of staphylococcal skin diseases in neonatal ward.

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek - 1 May 2009

Kurlenda J, Grinholc M, Krzysztoń-Russjan J, Wiśniewska K

Abstract excerpt

During a 1-month period, eight neonates developed staphylococcal skin disease diagnosed as a bullous impetigo in the maternity unit of the Provincial Hospital in Gdansk. An epidemiological investigation based on phenotyping and genotyping methods was performed. All neonates involved in the outbreak, their mothers and 15 staff members were screened for carriage of Staphylococcus aureus by nasal swabs. Isolated...
