We had eight cases of MDRP-causing CAUTI in hospitalized neurogenic bladder patients caused by spinal cord injury in 2 months. Pulse-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was performed for epidemiological studies. We assessed prevention measures against MDRP emergence from the 2nd month, such as surveillance of CAUTI and infection control, and evaluated the outcomes of these measures over a total of 8 months.\nOur PFGE results showed that these eight MDRP isolates could be considered as closely related strains. We concluded that this was an MDRP outbreak that was causing CAUTI. The isolated ratio of MDRP began to decrease over 4 months of surveillance and significantly decreased in the 4th quarter (7th and 8th months) compared with the 1st quarter (1st and 2nd months) (P=0.021) even though urinary tract device usage significantly increased over the same period (P\u003c0.001).\nWe experienced an outbreak of emergent MDRP causing CAUTI in neurogenic bladder patients with spinal cord injury. Our preventive measures for isolating the outbreak, including surveillance, may have led to the decrease we observed in the ratio of MDRP isolated.\n\n","tracks":[{"project":"bionlp-ost-19-BB-norm-ner-test","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":0,"end":159},"obj":"Title"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":160,"end":332},"obj":"Paragraph"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":333,"end":431},"obj":"Paragraph"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":432,"end":909},"obj":"Paragraph"},{"id":"T5","span":{"begin":910,"end":1379},"obj":"Paragraph"},{"id":"T6","span":{"begin":1380,"end":1641},"obj":"Paragraph"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"bionlp-ost-19-BB-norm-ner-test"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"bionlp-ost-19-BB-norm-ner-test"},{"subj":"T3","pred":"source","obj":"bionlp-ost-19-BB-norm-ner-test"},{"subj":"T4","pred":"source","obj":"bionlp-ost-19-BB-norm-ner-test"},{"subj":"T5","pred":"source","obj":"bionlp-ost-19-BB-norm-ner-test"},{"subj":"T6","pred":"source","obj":"bionlp-ost-19-BB-norm-ner-test"}]}],"config":{"attribute types":[{"pred":"source","value type":"selection","values":[{"id":"bionlp-ost-19-BB-norm-ner-test","color":"#c593ec","default":true}]}]}}
