Clinical and Antibiotic Resistance Features for Extended-Spectrum Betalactamase-Producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae Bloodstream Infections and Predictors of Poor Prognosis in Neonatal Patients

Abstract excerpt

Background: Neonatal bloodstream infections (BSIs) caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase Enterobacterales (ESBL-E) are associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to describe the clinical characteristics, profiles of antibiotic susceptibility, and risk factors associated with BSIs caused by E. coli (ESBL-EC) and K. pneumoniae (ESBL-KP), and identify risk factors for poor prognosis in...
