Potential reservoirs of pseudomonas within a neonatal ICU were evaluated. Colonization of infants by the same pseudomonas pyocin types could be classified as a cluster colonization (occurring over three to ten days), or serial colonization (occurring over longer times). Hands of personnel, sink surfaces, and solutions used to rinse nasopharyngeal catheters were identified as the principle reservoirs. Utilization of a liquid iodophor agent for hand washing and of acetic acid for rinsing suction catheters was associated with a significant reduction in the histologic evidence of sepsis and of pneumonia observed among autopsied infants.
