| CVC is the main factor of risk of bloodstream infections. This study purpose was determining both etiology and pathogenesis of these infections in 80 patients who undergone gastrointestinal surgery and who worn long lasting CVC, in the institution HC-UFU. Cultures were made in nostril, skin of the insertion site, tip and catheter hub, in addition to hemoculture in those suspects of sepsis. The colonization incidence rate of the catheter tip was 12.5/ 1,000 catheter days and the CVC associate infection rate was 3.1/1,000 catheter days. Frequencies of skin, hub and catheter tip colonization were 13.8%, 8.9% and 13.3%, respectively. Coagulase-negative Staphylococci were the most found microorganisms in nostril (74%), skin (45.4%) and hub (75%) and... |

| OBJECTIVE: To investigate the pathogenesis of bloodstream infection by Staphylococcus epidermidis, using the molecular epidemiology, in high-risk neonates. METHODS: We conducted a prospective study of a cohort of neonates with bloodstream infection using central venous catheters for more than 24 h. "National Healthcare Safety Network" surveillance was conducted. Genotyping was performed by DNA fingerprinting and mecA genes and icaAD were detected by multiplex-PCR. RESULTS: From April 2006 to April 2008, the incidence of bloodstream infection and central venous catheter-associated bloodstream infection was 15.1 and 13.0/1000 catheter days, respectively, with S. epidermidis accounting for 42.9% of episodes. Molecular analysis was used to document the... |
