Abstract excerpt

Multiresistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains with plasmid-borne extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) are increasingly frequent nosocomial pathogens. A major outbreak of clinical infections, mainly involving patients in the Newborn Services Unit with limited spread to adult patients, occurred at our hospital. This epidemic was investigated by typing the isolates phenotypically and with random amplified...
