An outbreak of Burkholderia contaminans at a quaternary children’s hospital linked to equipment reprocessing
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 September 2022
Abstract
Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) has been increasingly implicated in local and multistate outbreaks in both adult and pediatric healthcare settings. However, a lack of source identification may be common for BCC outbreak investigations. We describe, in detail, the investigation of an outbreak of BCC (B. contaminans) among pediatric patients at a large quaternary-care children’s hospital and our system-level changes and outcomes.
