Low birthweight neonates and those with long hospital stays are most at risk of antimicrobial-resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> infection in Malawi: implications for antibiotic prescribing

2026-07-01

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Research in Context</h4> <h4>Evidence before this study</h4> We searched PubMed for studies published between Jan 1, 2015, and Dec 31, 2025, using combinations of the terms “ Klebsiella pneumoniae ”, “neonate”, “young infant”, “bloodstream infection”, “sepsis”, “risk factors”, and “sub-Saharan Africa”. Only seven studies were identified. These studies were identified in South Africa, Tanzania, and Ethiopia....
