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...
