[Outbreak of Raoultella ornithinolytica infection in patients cared at a hemodialysis center].
An outbreak of Raoultella ornithinolytica bacteraemia is confirmed, due to possible cross-contamination in the CVC handling and antisepsis process. Possibly, the germ was carried by a container of alcoholic chlorhexidine that contaminated the catheter and caused bacteremia during the hemodialysis process.
