Sounds plausible.
By simply inhaling these essential oils, patients are able to prevent the risk of infection.
BS. There's a world of difference between direct contact between oils and germs in a lab dish, and "simply inhaling these oils to prevent risk of infection." This is hogwash.

What an interesting topic. Surfing produced a study in Japan at:
http://jac.oupjournals.org/cgi/content/full/47/5/565
RESULTS: All of the essential oils examined exhibited antibacterial activity, which generally increased in the following order: E. coli < S. aureus < streptococci < H. influenzae. No cross-resistance was observed between penicillinresistant and -susceptible S. pneumoniae and no significant difference in susceptibility between S. pneumoniae and S. pyogenes was identified. Among the 14 essential oils, cinnamon bark, lemongrass and thyme (wild and red) oils showed the highest activity, inhibiting six strains at <12.5 mg/L air, with the exception of lemongrass oil, which exhibited weak activity against E. coli (MID, 100 mg/L air). Perilla, thyme (geraniol), peppermint, tea tree, coriander and lavender (spike and true) oils showed moderate activity against all isolates except E. coli. However, tea tree and coriander oils showed activity against E. coli comparable to that against other strains. Eucalyptus (radiata) oil, and especially citron oil, were weakest in activity.
