Abstract

Two outbreaks of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii occurred in our hospital. The outbreak strains were eventually isolated from respiratory ventilators, an apparatus used to cool or warm patients, and four continuous veno-venous hemofiltration machines. Removing dust from the machines and replacing all dust filters brought the outbreaks to an end.
