Reducing dissemination of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
Besides being resistant to several β-lactams, carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) are often resistant to other widely used antimicrobials such as fluoroquinolones and cotrimoxazole, and sometimes to aminoglycosides (1,2). Although possibly not the only reason, the increased risk of delayed/suboptimal treatment consequent to the multidrug ...

Heteroresistance to Amikacin in Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Strains [PDF]
Heteroresistance can lead to treatment failure and is difficult to detect by the methods currently employed by clinical laboratories. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of the amikacin-heteroresistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains and explore potential amikacin heteroresistance mechanism through whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and ...

Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Associated with COVID-19 [PDF]
Infections with carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae are emerging as an important challenge in healthcare settings. Currently, carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) are the species of CRE most commonly encountered in hospitals. CRKP is resistant to almost all available antimicrobial agents, and infections with CRKP have been associated ...

Virulence factors in carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae
Hypervirulence and carbapenem-resistant have emerged as two distinct evolutionary pathotypes of Klebsiella pneumoniae, with both reaching their epidemic success and posing a great threat to public health. However, as the boundaries separating these two pathotypes fade, we assist a worrisome convergence in certain high-risk clones, causing hospital ...

Detection of carbapenemase genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates [PDF]
Introduction. Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the leading causes of serious hospital-acquired infections worldwide among Enterobacteriaceae species. It is the most common producer of carbapenemases in many parts of the world. Objective.

Rapid susceptibility profiling of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
AbstractThe expanding global distribution of multi-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae demands faster antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) to guide antibiotic treatment. Current ASTs rely on time-consuming differentiation of resistance and susceptibility after initial isolation of bacteria from a clinical specimen.
