Contaminated Ventilator Air Flow Sensor Linked to Bacillus cereus Colonization of Newborns
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013 We investigated Bacillus cereus–positive tracheal aspirates from infants on ventilators in a neonatal intensive care unit. Multilocus sequence typing determined a genetic match between strains isolated from samples from a case-patient and from the air ...
