Outbreak of <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> Producing a New Carbapenem-Hydrolyzing Class A β-Lactamase, KPC-3, in a New York Medical Center

24 Nov 2004

Abstract excerpt

From April 2000 to April 2001, 24 patients in intensive care units at Tisch Hospital, New York, N.Y., were infected or colonized by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis identified a predominant outbreak strain, but other resistant strains were also recovered. Three representatives of the outbreak strain from separate patients were studied in detail. All were resistant or...
