متن کاملOutbreak of KPC-3-producing, and colistin-resistant, Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in two Sicilian hospitals.
We report the first outbreak caused by colistin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae producing KPC-3 carbapenamase in two Italian hospitals. This spread occurred in 1 month, and was caused by eight colistin-resistant and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from eight patients. A further three isolates were obtained from the intestinal tract and pharyngeal colonization. All isolates w...
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 کاملKPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae, finally targeting Turkey
We report here the first identification of the worldwide spread of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-2-producing and carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae clone ST258 in Turkey, a country where the distantly-related carbapenemase OXA-48 is known to be endemic. Worryingly, this isolate was also resistant to colistin, now considered to be the last-resort antibiotic for carbapenem-resistant isolates.
متن کاملFirst detection of KPC-3-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Albania
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) represent a significant threat and a global problem when it comes to the detection and treatment of infections [1]. Since their first discovery in 1996 in the United States, CPEs harbouring one of the Ambler class A enzymes, the Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases (KPC), have been detected in many geographic regions [2]. They have disseminated r...
