Nosocomial infections
Med Clin North Am.
1983 Nov.
Abstract
Recent developments in the understanding of nosocomial infection in general and nosocomial respiratory infections in particular are elucidated. Although the discussion focuses on aerobic bacteria, data are presented to indicate the growing realization that unusual and newly discovered microorganisms play a significant role in hospital-acquired infections. Strategies for the control or prevention of nosocomial infections are highlighted.
