Abstract
The application of antiseptic solution for handling tunnelled catheters is recommended in patients undergoing haemodialysis. These routine antiseptic procedures in handling catheters are crucial to avoid complications. We report an outbreak of Serratia marcescens(S. marcescens) bacteraemia in numerous haemodialysis units of the Community of Madrid.
