Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An intravenous cannula infection is an example of an iatrogenic acquired infection, as it is a result of medical intervention (the insertion of the cannula). MRSA infection from overuse of antibiotics can also be considered iatrogenic, but this is not a choice given. Pneumococcal infection from air-conditioning and an endogenous infection are not examples of iatrogenic acquired infections.
