Earlier targeted therapy for bacteraemia optimizes patient outcomes and reduces broad spectrum antibiotic use. Standardized susceptibility testing results are available at 36–48 h. Direct disc from blood culture broth time to but the inoculum is not standardized. No studies have looked clinical utility of direct results. This retrospective cohort study aimed assess correlation between formal methods as well 160 episodes with paired were studied. was performed on broth. Formal isolates, using...
This report describes a cluster of patients infected by Serratia marcescens in metropolitan neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and package infection control interventions that enabled rapid, effective termination the outbreak.Cross-sectional analytical study using whole-genome sequencing (WGS) for phylogenetic analysis identification virulence resistance genes.NICU tertiary-care hospital Sydney, Australia.All neonates admitted to level 2 3 unit.Active inpatient environmental screening...
Bacillus cereus is a common laboratory and environmental contaminant. Reports of severe infections are mainly limited to immunocompromised individuals. In reported cases, the time interval between bacteraemia neuro-invasion appears be very short, highlighting importance rapid definitive identification susceptibility testing invasive B. . We report case neonatal complicated by brain abscess from intensive care unit. The neonate presented with bradycardia desaturations increased oxygen...
