Abstract excerpt

The present study reports the epidemiological investigations undertaken in one of Krakow's city hospitals regarding the source of infection and the routes of transmission of a group A streptococcus (Streptococcus pyogenes), using fluorescent in situ hybridization as a rapid method for detecting S. pyogenes carriage in the medical personnel involved. Four patients from the gynaecology department and two patients...
