20 Aug 2023
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) and Klebsiella variicola (hvKv) cause hospital/community-acquired infections, often associated with antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This study aimed to investigate the molecular epidemiology of hvKp and hvKv in northern Japan. METHODS: A total of 500 K. pneumoniae and 421 K. variicola clinical isolates collected from August to December 2021 were studied....
