Baby bottle steam sterilizers for disinfecting home nebulizers inoculated with non-tuberculous mycobacteria

Autor: Dana Towle, Deborah A. Callan, Thomas S. Murray, C. Lamprea

Publikováno v: Journal of Hospital Infection. 92:222-225

Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTMb), present in environmental water sources, can contribute to respiratory infection in patients with chronic pulmonary disease. Contaminated nebulizers are a potential source of respiratory infection. Treatment with b
