Outbreak investigation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in a neonatal intensive care unit.
American Journal of Infection Control 2019 September
A Pseudomonas aeruginosa outbreak was investigated in a neonatal intensive care unit that had experienced a prior similar outbreak. The 8 cases identified included 2 deaths. An investigation found the cause of the outbreak: tap water from contaminated hospital plumbing which was used for humidifier reservoirs, neonatal bathing, and nutritional preparation. Our findings reinforce a recent Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services memo recommending increased attention to water management to improve awareness, identification, mitigation, and prevention of water-associated, health care-associated infections.
