The hospital-wide attack rate for Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea at our tertiary-care university hospital was 0.02 per 100 patient discharges (0.02%) in 1982, but 0.41% and 1.47% in 1986 and 1987, respectively, with a peak incidence of 2.2

Achromobacter xylosoxidans is a nonfermenting, oxidase-positive, gram-negative rod that prefers aqueous environmental reservoirs. A variety of such sources have been implicated in epidemic and sporadic A xylosoxidans infections, including the deioniz

Invasive aspergillus rhinosinusitis is a potentially lethal complication of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia in patients with acute leukemia. The majority of cases are caused by Aspergillus flavus. The infection is difficult to diagnose early but sho

Six hundred sixteen sera from 79 hematology patients admitted on 152 occasions were analyzed for validation of the Aspergillus fumigatus antigen radioimmunoassay (RIA). Invasive aspergillosis developed on 24 admissions of 22 patients. Maximal antigen

We investigated the feasibility of transducer head disinfection with 70% alcohol wipes. In the initial trial, nine gas-sterilized transducers were inoculated with an estimated 5 × 106 organisms of a clinical isolate of Enterobacter cloacae, mimickin

Summary In clinical trials, the diagnostic utility of a radioimmunoassay (RIA) to detect Aspergillus antigen was demonstrated in sera obtained from patients with invasive pulmonary, endothelial, and disseminated aspergillosis, in cerebrospinal fluids
