To identify risk factors associated with surgical-site infection according to the depth of infection, cardiac procedure, and National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance System index.Prospective survey conducted during a 12-month period.A 48-bed surgical department in teaching hospital.Patients admitted for surgery between February 2002 January 2003.Surgical-site infections were diagnosed 3% patients (38 1,268). Of 38 infections, 20 superficial incisional 18 mediastinitis incidence rates 1.6%...
To determine the incidence and clinical relevance of active human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) infection, 92 consecutive unselected recipients autologous or allogeneic stem cell grafts were investigated in a prospective longitudinal study. Active infection was assessed by presence viral deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) 846 peripheral blood mononuclear specimens 115 plasma specimens, means specially developed polymerase chain reaction designed to avoid detection latent genome. The HHV-6 observed 42.5%,...
Early-onset ventilator associated pneumonia (EOVAP) are frequent in head-trauma patients, but specific risk factors poorly studied this population.We conducted a retrospective cohort study surgical intensive care unit. Consecutive severe patients admitted from January 2000 to December 2002 were studied. Microorganisms, and risks for EOVAP analyzed.During the 3-year period, 161 studied; 21.1% of them developed an EOVAP. On univariate analysis 6 variables with EOVAP: early enteral feeding,...
Cutibacterium acnes (formerly Propionibacterium acnes) is recognized as a pathogen in foreign-body infections (arthroplasty or spinal instrumentation). To date, the direct impact of C. on bone cells has never been explored. The clade 11 clinical isolates was determined by MLST. Human osteoblasts and osteoclasts were infected live acnes. whole genome sequence six this collection analyzed. CC36 strains significantly less internalized than CC18 CC28 (p ≤ 0.05). ATCC6919 isolate could survive...
Data on the relationship between antimicrobial resistance and mortality remain scarce, this needs to be investigated in intensive care units (ICUs). The aim of study was compare ICU rates patients with ICU-acquired pneumonia due highly antimicrobial-resistant (HAMR) bacteria those non-HAMR bacteria. We conducted a multicenter, retrospective cohort using French National Surveillance Network for Healthcare Associated Infection ICUs ("REA-Raisin") database, gathering data from 200 January 2007...
Background Direct observation has been widely used to assess interactions between healthcare workers (HCWs) and patients but is time-consuming feasible only over short periods. We a Radio Frequency Identification Device (RFID) system automatically measure HCW-patient interactions. Methods equipped 50 patient rooms with fixed sensors 111 HCW volunteers mobile in two clinical wards of hospitals. For 3 months, we recorded all HCWs 54 under airborne precautions for suspected (n = 40) or...
We describe the first case of hip prosthetic infection due to Lactococcus garvieae. The patient, a 71-year-old woman fishmonger, developed 7 years after total arthroplasty. origin was possibly manipulation or intake seafood fish contaminated with
