Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In 2004, a 650-bed, tertiary care medical center experienced an outbreak of multiple antibiotic-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (MR-KP) that included extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing and non-ESBL-producing strains. METHODS: Characteristics associated with MR-KP were evaluated by case-control study with variables tested by conditional regression analyses. Pulsed-field gel...
