Infectious causes of necrotizing enterocolitis
2015, Clinics in PerinatologyCitation Excerpt :Both E coli and Klebsiella were isolated in feces at markedly higher rates in infants with NEC than those without.116 Several outbreaks of NEC associated with E coli have been described.117,118 In one report, 15 of 16 infants with suspected or confirmed NEC had either enterotoxigenic E coli or its heat-labile enterotoxin recovered in stool.118

2009, Journal of PediatricsCitation Excerpt :Our study used analytic techniques to identify the temporal clustering of NEC, whereas previous studies relied on intuitive or ad hoc definitions only. Many previous studies on outbreaks of NEC reported either very low rates of NEC11-13,17,19,22,29 or did not report a background rate,10,14,15,18,28,30 leading the reader to assume that perhaps that particular site typically sees only a small number of NEC cases within their institution. Our NICUs have a relatively endemic rate of NEC.
