Reducing dissemination of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]

Annals of Translational Medicine, 2019
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]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
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 ...

Polyphasic characterization of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates suggests vertical transmission of the blaKPC-3 gene [PDF]

, 2021
Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae are a major global threat in healthcare facilities. The propagation of carbapenem resistance determinants can occur through vertical transmission, with genetic elements being transmitted by the host bacterium ...

The Metabolome of Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Infection in Plasma

Disease Markers, 2021
Aim. Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae- (CR-Kp-) mediated infections represent a challenge for clinical practitioners due to their expanding prevalence in hospital environments and antibiotic resistance. However, few studies have shown metabolic changes of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and CR-Kp-negative patients, and relevant ...
