Genomic dissection of the bacterial population underlying<i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>infections in hospital patients: insights into an opportunistic pathogen
2021-12-09
Abstract excerpt
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a major cause of opportunistic healthcare-associated infections, which are increasingly complicated by the presence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) and carbapenem resistance. We conducted a year-long prospective surveillance study of K. pneumoniae clinical isolates identified in a hospital microbiological diagnostic laboratory. Disease burden was two-thirds urinary tract infec...
