Genomic epidemiology of <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> neonatal and infant sepsis in Kenyan hospitals

2025-10-31

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Klebsiella pneumoniae ( Kpn ) is a leading cause of sepsis among hospitalised neonates and commonly causes outbreaks. Lack of surveillance data from low- and middle-income countries hampers development of vaccines and new measures to control infections. We describe the genomic epidemiology of Kpn neonatal infections admitted to Kenyan hospitals. <h4>Methods</h4> We analysed clinical and ge...
