1 Jan 2020
Abstract excerpt
Background Emergence of KPC-2 and NDM-1-coproducing carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC-2-NDM-1-CRKP) has escalated threat of CRKP to healthcare. Currently, only 4 isolates had been reported sporadically. It remains unclear how KPC-2-NDM-1-CRKPs emerged, and whether they are stable and have transmission capacity.
