Description

Serratia marcescens is an opportunistic, gram negative, pathogen from the family Enterobacteriaceae that causes both opportunistic and nosocomial infections. It is estimated that only 1-2% of hospital acquired infections, typically of the respiratory tract, urinary tract, surgical wounds or soft tissues, are due to Serratia marcescens. Serratia-associated meningitis can occur in pediatric patients. Diagnosis of Serratia marcescens infection is made through standard laboratory testing of blood, urine, pus and other bodily fluids. Severe infections, including meningitis and sepsis, have a high mortality rate. PMID: 23543704 Source: Regenstrief LOINC,
