21 Mar 2023
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) show rapid global dissemination and pose a significant therapeutic challenge. This study aimed to characterize carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella spp. and Escherichia coli (E. coli) phenotypically and genotypically and evaluate the effect of ceftazidime/ avibactam plus aztreonam combination. METHODS: A total of 219 Klebsiella species and 390 E. coli...
