我们在此报告一例实验室确诊的克里米亚-刚果出血热（CCHF）致命病例，该病例导致8名为患者提供医疗服务的卫生保健工作者（HCWs）院内感染。所有的医护人员都活了下来。该报告表明，空气传播的CCHF是一个真正的风险，至少当CCHF患者在呼吸机时。在对任何CCHF患者进行任何产生气溶胶的医疗程序期间，应始终将空气传播预防措施添加到标准预防措施中，特别是气道保护N95口罩或同等标准、眼睛保护、单一空气传播预防室或通风良好的环境。(C) 2015年作者。由爱思唯尔有限公司代表国际传染病学会出版。
We report here a fatal case of laboratory confirmed Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF), which caused nosocomial infection in eight health care workers (HCWs), who had provided medical care for the patient. All the HCWs survived.The report demonstrates that airborne transmission of CCHF is a real risk, at least when the CCHF patient is in a ventilator. During performance of any aerosol-generating medical procedures for any CCHF patient airborne precautions should always be added to standard precautions, in particular, airway protective N95 mask or equivalent standard, eye protection, single airborne precaution room, or a wellventilated setting.
