Antimicrobial resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> carriage and infection in specialized geriatric care wards linked to acquisition in the referring hospital

2017-11-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Klebsiella pneumoniae is a leading cause of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing hospital-associated infections, for which elderly patients are at increased risk. <h4>Methods</h4> We conducted a 1-year prospective cohort study, in which a third of patients admitted to two geriatric wards in a specialized hospital were recruited and screened for carriage of K. pneumoniae by micr...
