KlebsiellaInfection in Patients with Thalassemia [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2003
Klebsiella infection has previously been reported in a few patients with transfusion-dependent thalassemia. The incidence and clinical spectrum of this infection in our cohort of patients were reviewed retrospectively. Among 160 patients observed for 12 years, there were 15 episodes of Klebsiella infection that occurred in 12 patients (7.5%), resulting

Nosocomial infection and colonization by Klebsiella trevisanii [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1986
During an 18-month period we identified two cases of septicemia and 24 examples of colonization of humans by Klebsiella trevisanii. Organisms were identified using the API 20EC and API 147 assimilation galleries. Of 147 clinical isolates initially identified as K. oxytoca, 18% were found to be K. trevisanii. Tracheal aspirate was the most common source

Severe bloodstream infection due to KPC-producer e coli in a renal transplant recipient treated with the double-carbapenem regimen and analysis of in vitro synergy testing a case report [PDF]

, 2016
Transplant recipients are at high risk of infections caused by multidrug resistant microorganisms. Due to the limited thera- peutic options, innovative antimicrobial combinations against carbape- nem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae causing severe infections

Antibiotic prophylaxis is associated with subsequent resistant infections in children with an initial extended-spectrum-cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infection [PDF]

, 2017
The objective of this study was to assess the association between previous antibiotic use, particularly long-term prophylaxis, and the occurrence of subsequent resistant infections in children with index infections due to extended-spectrum-cephalosporin ...

Broad-spectrum β-lactamases among Enterobacteriaceae of animal origin: molecular aspects, mobility and impact on public health [PDF]

, 2010
Broad-spectrum β-lactamase genes (coding for extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC β-lactamases) have been frequently demonstrated in the microbiota of food-producing animals. This may pose a human health hazard since these genes may be present

Characteristics of Klebsiella bloodstream infections and risk factors for carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella infections in children

Trends in Pediatrics, 2023
Objective: Klebsiella spp. is a common and severe pathogen of bloodstream infections (BSI) due to gram-negative bacilli. Carbapenems are commonly used agents for the treatment of serious infections. However, the incidence of carbapenem-resistant (CR) Klebsiella infections has increased significantly in recent years.

The transmission of nosocomial pathogens in an intensive care unit: a space–time clustering and structural equation modelling approach [PDF]

, 2010
We investigated the incidence of cases of nosocomial pathogens and risk factors in an intensive treatment unit ward to determine if the number of cases is dependent on location of patients and the colonization/infection history of the ward.
