Ophthalmic Pseudomonas infection in infancy [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood - Fetal and Neonatal Edition, 2001
Four infants developed invasive Pseudomonas aeruginosa ophthalmic infections between 5 and 90 days of age. Three died from septicaemia, and the fourth required enucleation of one eye. Absent red reflexes or other eye signs in a septicaemic infant merit urgent ophthalmological assessment for endophthalmitis, in particular, Pseudomonas.
