[Critical study of serodiagnosis of Yersinia infections].

The study concerns 100 patients who are divided in two dissimilar groups. The first group is composed of 39 patients who have signs of possible Yersiniosis infection. In second group composed of 61 cirrhotics patients, the serodiagnosis was systematic. The rate of positive serology, comparing with healthy patients, is significantly high in both groups: 61,5 p. 100 (first group) 64 p. 100 (second group). Six cases in the first group were very likely caused by Yersinia infection and confirm the utility of the serodiagnosis in front of evocative symptomatology. But many positive serodiagnosis remain unexplained and the greatest care must be taken in appreciation of these results. Among cirrhotic patients, the positive serology is not correlated with evocative symptoms and would be the result of asymptomatic bacteriemias.

[Septicemic complications of venous perfusion catheterization. 4 years' experience in an intensive care unit].

Septicemia is a complication of prolonged venous catheterisation; although rare, is at present important owing to the severity of the condition and the possibility of prevention. The severity should lead one to very careful precautions to avoid sepsis, which antibiotic therapy and emergencies often lead one to neglect. The development of research on the prophylaxis of septicemia suggests that in the future, prolonged intravenous fluid may be given less dangerously. They are usually essential during the initial stages of intensive care.
