Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: A refractory epidemic of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) emerged in the adult population at our hospital in 2005, as in most Israeli hospitals. Contemporaneously, a different clone of CRKP caused an easily contained outbreak in a paediatric long-term care facility (LTCF) in Jerusalem. While previously identified host-related risk factors for colonization by these organisms...
