Alert Panama bacteria in social security hospitals

Panama, Feb 24 (Prensa Latina) Authorities of the Social Security Fund (CSS) in Panama reported today to the public on nosocomial bacteria present in the central hospital complex in the capital. The agency reported that four bacteria are those that are registered in the complex: ESBL, KPC, Enterococcus and Clostridium, but added that the first of which has not appeared in the last 10 weeks, but be careful. The CSS report notes that in the case of the KPC in the month January reported three cases of infection and on February 1 so far this month, while the two infected Enterococcus in January and two in February. The major reports were given to the Clostridium, 11 patients were reported as contaminated in January and eight in February. The report states that the institution continues with contact precautions, deep cleaning of rooms and equipment, active search of asymptomatic carriers and insulation in special rooms with dedicated staff for these patients. All the resort staff, whose intensive care units and surgical interventions were remodeled last year during the crisis of the KBC is a function of preventing the repetition of that bitter experience that left more than a hundred dead.
