Hi Helen,
Always a bit contentious, but we always isolate until no diarrhoea for 48 hours.

Subject: [ACIPC_Infexion_Connexion] Aeromonas
Morning,
I recently have 2 patients transferred into our hospital with a positive Aeromonas in faeces.
The patients both have loose bowel motions and I have placed them on precautions.
I am wondering do these patients need to go on precautions and if so for how long?
I normally would do 48 hr. post last loose bowel motion.
Any help would be appreciated.
Kind regards
Helen
