Prevalence of molecular types and mecA gene carriage of coagulase-negative Staphylococci in a neonatal intensive care unit: relation to nosocomial septicemia.

T G Krediet1, M E Jones, K Janssen, L J Gerards, A Fleer.   

Abstract

Molecular typing of isolates revealed that neonatal coagulase-negative staphylococcal (CONS) septicemia is most frequently caused by predominant, antibiotic-resistant CONS types, which are widely distributed among both neonates and staff of the neonatal unit, suggesting cross-contamination. Therefore, infection control measures may be valuable in the prevention of this common nosocomial septicemia.
