    Author: Cann KJ, Johnstone D, Skene AI.
    Journal: J Hosp Infect; 1987 May; 9(3):291-3. PubMed ID: 2886535.
    Abstract:
    Serratia marcescens was isolated from the urine of five patients, two of whom subsequently developed septicaemia with other Gram-negative bacilli. Four of the five patients had undergone urodynamic investigation. An inadequately sterilized re-usable rectal balloon was identified as the source of infection.
