    Abstract:
    We present the clinical course of four children involved in an outbreak of intravenous cannulae associated nosocomial septicaemia due to multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae. The patients involved, two of whom died became bacteraemic within a three week period, and evidence for an environmental source of the organism was obtained.
