摘要
From October to December 2007, an outbreak of Burkholderia cenocepacia occurred in a secondary care hospital. The 19 B cenocepacia isolated from the patients, the chlorhexidine solutions of each different ward, and the purified water that diluted these solutions exhibited an identical pulsed-field gel electrophoresis pattern. Inadequate preparation of chlorhexidine solutions diluted with contaminated purified water may have resulted in an outbreak of B cenocepacia. Adequate preparation of chlorhexidine solutions should be emphasized. Copyright (c) 2013 by the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc. Published by Elsevier Inc.
