BACKGROUND: We report 2 consecutive outbreaks of the Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) in an intensive care unit (ICU) and describe its characteristics and consequences.
METHODS: Over a 72-day period, a multidisciplinary ICU team detected 2 distinct periods of high and unusual incidence of Bcc isolates that were recovered from cultures of endotracheal aspirate. Cultures of tap water, ultrasound gel and mouthwash (opened and unopened bottles) were performed. Bcc was identified with the BD-Phoenix and MALDI-TOF MS systems, with molecular typing using the enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-polymerase chain reaction technique.
RESULTS: In both outbreak 1 (6 patients) and outbreak 2 (5 patients), the point sources of Bcc were chlorhexidine mouthwashes of 2 different brands, both of them intrinsically contaminated. All patients had a clinical diagnosis of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), and 6 died. MALDI-TOF MS identified 2 species of Bcc (B. cenocepacia and B. cepacia). Enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-polymerase chain reaction typing confirmed 100% genetic similarity between patient and mouthwash isolates from each period. The first outbreak was controlled in 20 days and the second in 6 days.
CONCLUSIONS: The surveillance program for multidrug-resistant organisms, especially in high-risk patients, with the active participation of a multidisciplinary team, was crucial for success in controlling these outbreaks.
