Toroviruses have been reported as a new cause of nosocomial viral diarrhoea, and the role of astroviruses has been further elucidated. Polymerase chain reaction methods promise to improve the diagnosis and understanding of the aetiology and control of hospital-acquired viral gastroenteritis.

Infection Control, 1984
AbstractWe analyzed 14 cases of nosocomial infective endocarditis which occurred over a seven-year period at the Beth Israel Hospital in Boston, and compared them with 90 cases of community-acquired endocarditis. Patients with nosocomial endocarditis were older, more often female, and had a greater incidence of underlying valvular heart disease and ...

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 1993
Nosocomial stroke occurs during hospitalization for unrelated problems. Increased understanding of this relatively ignored entity may provide the key to improved stroke prophylaxis for the hospitalized patient at risk and provide clues to the precipitants of stroke in the general population. We compared nosocomial stroke to stroke occurring outside the

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1987
Nosocomial pneumonias are a particularly problematic group of infections. The pathogenesis of these pneumonias, including mechanisms of colonization and pulmonary defense mechanisms, is discussed. An approach to the hospitalized patient with fever and infiltrates, based on the clinical setting, the nature of the host defense defect, the radiographic ...

Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2007
The suspicion of meningitis in a patient hospitalized for another condition remains a vexing clinical problem. The abrupt onset of typical signs and symptoms of acute bacterial meningitis in someone with a previously normal mental status is very unusual, and when it occurs, it does not pose a diagnostic challenge.

Critical Care Clinics, 1998
Nosocomial diarrheas are an important problem in hospitals, and in critical care units in particular. Hospital-acquired diarrhea may be on an infectious or noninfectious basis. Common noninfectious causes of nosocomial diarrhea include medication-induced changes in the fecal flora or changes secondary to enteral hyperalimenation.

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 1999
Nosocomial pneumonia remains an important infection that warrants continuing investigation. The past year has seen a number of reports further describing risk factors, controversial issues around diagnosis, and potential preventive strategies. For specific infecting organisms such as Legionnaire's disease and tuberculosis, further reports of issues ...

Journal of Hospital Infection, 1997
When the larvae of flies invade man the clinical picture is referred to as 'myiasis'. When myiasis occurs in a patient after hospitalization the disease is termed nosocomial myiasis, a very infrequent phenomenon. The present investigation was conducted to record the cases of nosocomial myiasis documented worldwide.

Waterborne nosocomial infections
Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2000Waterborne pathogens cause infections in health-care facilities. Despite guidelines addressing these pathogens, outbreaks and pseudo-outbreaks continue to occur. We reviewed recent reports of infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Chryseobacterium species, nontuberculous mycobacteria, and Legionella species ...
