Contaminated medicaments in use in a hospital for diseases of the skin.

R M Baird, Z A Awad, R A Shooter, W C Noble.   

Abstract

Topical medicaments used by patients with diseases of the skin were examined for microbial contamination. Ps. aeruginosa was isolated from stock pots of a diluted emulsifying ointment used as a soap substitute in the bath. Cross-contamination between patients and medicament was subsequently shown to have occurred.
