Klebsiella oxytoca Endocarditis With Complete Heart Block
Gram-negative bacterial endocarditis causes 5% of all bacterial endocarditis. Among gram-negative bacteria, Klebsiella species are rare causes of native valve endocarditis. Klebsiella oxytoca is an extremely rare subspecies that can infrequently cause endocarditis and is associated with poor outcome. We report a case of Klebsiella oxytoca endocarditis in an elderly man who initially presented w...
متن کاملNosocomial outbreak of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella oxytoca in Austria.
To date, no outbreak of carbapenemase-producing bacteria has been reported for Austria. While outbreaks of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing K. pneumoniae have been increasingly reported, no outbreak caused by KPC-producing Klebsiella oxytoca has been described yet, to the best of our knowledge. We report an outbreak of KPC-producing K. oxytoca. In 5 months, 31 KPC-producing K...
متن کاملSepticemia caused by Klebsiella oxytoca.
Klebsiella oxytoca was isolated from the blood of a leukemic patient. The typical pathogenicity of Klebsiella oxytoca was observed in the patient. The pathogenicity of several Klebsiella oxytoca strains isolated from blood, urine and sputum of different patients was examined in mice, and it was found that Klebsiella oxytoca isolated from the blood had a higher toxicity than the others.
متن کاملCharacterization of Piperacillin/Tazobactam-Resistant Klebsiella oxytoca Recovered from a Nosocomial Outbreak
We characterized 12 clinical isolates of Klebsiella oxytoca with the extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) phenotype (high minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC] values of ceftriaxone) recovered over 9 months at a university hospital in Japan. To determine the clonality of the isolates, we used pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), multi-locus sequence typing (MLST), and PCR analyses to detec...
متن کاملA case of Klebsiella oxytoca endocarditis in an intravenous drug user
Non-HACEK Gram-negative bacilli account for only a small percentage of infective endocarditis cases globally. Among those, Klebsiella species account for only about 10% of cases and are most often health-care acquired. We present a rare case of Klebsiella oxytoca endocarditis in a young intravenous drug user.
