No Carbapenem Resistance in Pneumonia Caused by Klebsiella Species

Medicine, 2015
Klebsiella species are a common cause of community- and nosocomial-acquired pneumonia. Antibiotic resistance to the class of carbapenem in patients with pneumonia caused by Klebsiella species is unusual. New studies report carbapenem resistance in patients with pneumonia caused by Klebsiella species.This article examines, retrospectively, antibiotic ...

Klebsiella pneumoniae Antimicrobial Drug Resistance, United States, 1998–2010

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
We studied antimicrobial-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae for 1998–2010 by using data from The Surveillance Network. Susceptibility results (n = 3,132,354) demonstrated significant increases in resistance to all antimicrobial drugs studied, except ...

Treatment Outcome of Bacteremia Due to KPC-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae: Superiority of Combination Antimicrobial Regimens [PDF]

, 2012
Klebsiella pneumoniae producing Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) has been associated with serious infections and high mortality. The optimal antimicrobial therapy for infection due to KPC-producing K. pneumoniae is not well established.

Network Integrative Genomic and Transcriptomic Analysis of Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Strains Identifies Genes for Antibiotic Resistance and Virulence

mSystems, 2019
Global increases in the use of carbapenems have resulted in several strains of Gram-negative bacteria acquiring carbapenem resistance, thereby limiting treatment options. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a common carbapenem-resistant pathogenic bacterium that is

Antibacterial activity of eravacycline against Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates: an in vitro study

Microbiology Spectrum
Eravacycline, a novel tetracycline antibiotic, may be an effective treatment option for Klebsiella pneumoniae infections. We thus conducted an in vitro susceptibility analysis for eravacycline in 211 K. pneumoniae isolates.
