These Techniques Stopped the Outbreak of an Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria in a SoCal Hospital | Newswise Researchers detected Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a common hospital-acquired bacterium, often found in moist environments. But this strain carried a gene called New Delhi metallo-Ξ²-lactamase (NDM-1), an en...

UCLA Health ended an NDM-1 Pseudomonas aeruginosa outbreak by tracing it to an ICU sink biofilm via whole-genome sequencing, then eliminating it with targeted disinfection, plumbing changes, and staff educationβ€”showcasing the power of diverse IPC measures.
