In May 2017, the incidence of infection with this organism increased to 8.54, which was much higher than the incidence of 4.59 noted in April Statistical analysis of the number of hospital days using the chi-squared test revealed significant differences (df = 1, X 2 = 1474, P < 0.000). To avoid spreading the disease, further investigation was conducted. Results of the investigation showed that 5 cases of neonatal eye infections were due to S. marcescens. After environmental inspection, culture of 3 bottles of bath solutions showed the same bacteria. The bacteria was determined to be from the bath solution; the staff were infected through their hands, and they, in turn, infected the neonates eyes with their hands. Conclusion: The standard neonatal bath solution must not be divided or diluted, and the bath tub must be maintained clean and dry at all times when not in use. An increase in personnel education may stop this infection from spreading. Key words: Newborn, Serratia marcescens, infection 107 6
