What happened to Claudia Alencar?
Claudia was diagnosed with a serious bacterial infection after spinal surgery. Claudia has been undergoing intensive treatment and suffering from a serious illness since she was admitted to hospital on December 17th.
On the 24th, Claudia underwent another operation to treat the surgical wound that had caused the infection and to identify the bacteria responsible. Last Tuesday the 26th, the Muse was extubated (procedure to remove a tube inserted into the patient).
Which bacteria infected Claudia Alencar?
The operation identified one species: Staphylococcus aureus, which in severe cases can cause pneumonia and heart infections. Transmission occurs through contact and usually occurs easily on the skin.
However, complications arise when a wound occurs, which means that the bacteria can enter the body. Some strains of this microorganism have developed resistance to antibiotics, making it a superbug and making treatment more difficult in some cases.
