Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To describe successful termination of an outbreak of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm) colonization within a neonatal service. SETTING: Multisite neonatal intensive care unit and special care nurseries within a single health care service. PARTICIPANTS: Forty-four cases of VREfm-colonized neonatal inpatients-including 2 clinical isolates (eye swab and catheter-urine specimen) and 42...
