| survival of lung transplant patients with cystic fibrosis harboring panresistant bacteria other than burkholderia cepacia, compared with patients harboring sensitive bacteria. | the impact of panresistant bacteria, other than burkholderia cepacia, on the survival after lung transplantation in patients with cystic fibrosis (cf) remains controversial. | 2007 | 17692788 |
| risk factors for burkholderia cepacia complex bacteremia among intensive care unit patients without cystic fibrosis: a case-control study. | the burkholderia cepacia complex is associated with colonization or disease in patients with cystic fibrosis (cf). for patients without cf, this complex is poorly understood apart from its presence in occasional point source outbreaks. | 2007 | 17620243 |
| an outbreak of pseudomonas cepacia bacteremia associated with a contaminated intra-aortic balloon pump. | in january 1983, symptomatic pseudomonas cepacia bacteremia developed in two patients in the cardiothoracic intensive care unit within 3 days after cardiac operation and insertion of an intra-aortic balloon pump. an epidemiologic and microbiologic investigation revealed that both patients required intra-aortic balloon pumping for circulatory support and that the water reservoir of the intra-aortic balloon pump (smec, inc., cookeville, tenn.) contained more than 10(5) pseudomonas cepacia per mill ... | 1988 | 3386290 |
