Epidemiology and Clinical Significance of pLVPK-Like Virulence Plasmid in KPC-2-Producing Klebsiella Pneumoniae Infections in A Tertiary Hospital in Eastern China

2020-10-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> By acquiring a pLVPK-like virulence plasmid (pVir), Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing K . pneumoniae (KPC-kp) evolves to a hypervirulent variant, however, controversies exist. The aim of present study was to determine the prevalence, risk factors and clinical outcomes of patients infected with pVir + -KPC-kp. <h4>Methods: </h4>: Between 2014 and 2018, 662 carbapenem-resistan...
