title: Pseudomonas paucimobilis contamination of cool mist tents on a paediatric ward.
abstract: Investigations resulting from the isolation of Pseudomonas paucimobilis from the atomizer units of paediatric cool mist tents implicated the hospital water supply as the potential source of contamination. The pathogenic potential of the organism and its role in nosocomial infection is discussed.
