Carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae
The continuing emergence of infections due to multidrug resistant bacteria is a serious public health problem. Klebsiella pneumoniae, which commonly acquires resistance encoded on mobile genetic elements, including ones that encode carbapenemases, is a prime example. K. pneumoniae carrying such genetic material, including both blaKPC and genes encoding metallo-β-lactamases, have spread globally...
متن کاملColistin heteroresistance in carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Sir, Klebsiella pneumoniae is an important pathogen that causes severe and life-threatening infections. Most isolates demonstrate resistance to various antimicrobial agents. Carbapenems have been widely used to treat serious infections with multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae. However, the increasing use of these compounds has led to the emergence of carbapenem-resistant isolates via acquired gen...

متن کاملCeftazidime-avibactam in urinary tract infections due to carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella in kidney transplantation.
Enterobacteriaceae are an important cause of infections, and the infection recurred weeks after finishing the antibiotic cycle, which led to another hospitalisation. For this reason, we decided to initiate treatment with the recent antibiespecially in immunocompromised patients. The recent appearance of carbapenemase-producing enterobacteriaceae otic ceftazidime–avibactam (C–A) for 2 weeks at a...
متن کاملCarbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in the Czech Republic in 2011.
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas spp. are increasingly reported in many countries all over the world. Due to the resistance of those bacteria to almost all antibiotics (e.g.beta-lactams, aminoglycosides, fluoroquinolones),treatment options are seriously limited. In the Czech Republic, the incidence of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae seems to be low, restrict...
