Passau (dapd-bay). Trauer in der Passauer Kinderklinik "Dritter Orden": Ein mit dem Problemkeim ESBL infiziertes Baby ist am Sonntag auf der Frühchenstation gestorben. Der Junge habe durch die Frühgeburt gravierende gesundheitliche Probleme entwickelt, teilte das Krankenhaus mit. Welche Rolle der Keim im weiteren Krankheitsverlauf gespielt habe, sei derzeit noch unklar. Das Baby sei mit Antibiotika behandelt worden, ESBL sei in Folgeuntersuchungen nicht mehr nachweisbar gewesen.

"Wir sind sehr traurig und betroffen. Unsere Gedanken sind jetzt bei den Eltern und der Familie", erklärte der kommissarische Ärztliche Direktor der Klinik, Christian Schropp. Die Ärzte und Pflegemitarbeiter hätten lange um das Leben des Babys gekämpft.
