Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae: Epidemiology and Prevention [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2011
Over the past 10 years, dissemination of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) has led to an increase in the prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) in the United States. Infections caused by CRE have limited treatment options and have been associated with high mortality rates. In the previous year, other carbapenemase subtypes,
