Italy - Three deaths for multi-resistant klebsiella pneumoniae in San Bassiano hospital

[tetano]

Concern about the hospital of San Bassiano for the presence of a bacterium-killer that a month ago has caused the death of three patients. The germ in question and the "Klebsiella pneumoniae" from a strain that has never been isolated in the hospital citizen.
As a rule, explain the direction hospital, the Klebsiella and a germ which coexists without problems with human beings endowed with normal immune defenses. One of its variants, however, has, over the years, become extremely aggressive and can worsen the conditions of patients already in clinical conditions difficult, to cause the death.
IT IS essentially what happened in the hospital citizen. The three died, in fact, were hospitalized for diseases "poor prognosis", i.e. with fatal certainly quickly. In practice, have received the coup de grace from infections of the germ in version "multi-resistant".

Bassano, bacteria killer, search for the origin of THE CASE. The microorganism last month has killed three patients already sick. "But now the infection was blocked" THE Hslu wants to understand if the variant aggressive has thrown at San Bassiano or both arrived from outside is also investigating the Prosecutor 04 01/03
Bacteria killer, continuing to San Bassiano investigations on pathogen "Klebsiella pneumoniae", that a month ago has caused the death of three patients. The case is also affecting the Public Prosecutor of the Republic, who has opened a file. THE Hslu spoke of patients hospitalized for diseases already "poor prognosis".ot in But one of them, Tiziano Farronato, 56 years, Cassola, claimed that his relatives was not a critical condition at the time of hospitalization. Meanwhile, the news has reached the Commission of inquiry on the national health service, chaired by the parliamentary Pd Ignazio Marino.
"This is a dramatic event - said Marino - not unlikely as it might seem, for two reasons. The first is that the use of antibiotics has also led to the growth of multi-resistant bacteria. The second is the concentration of bacteria potentially lethal in some particular places
