Whole Genome Sequencing Uncovers the Genetic Determinants of Colistin Resistance in Multi-Drug Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolated from Patients Admitted in the ICU of a Tertiary Care Hospital in Kampala, Uganda

2023-10-23

Abstract excerpt

Multidrug resistance (MDR) among gram-negative bacteria is a global public health threat because it has exhausted all standard therapeutic options. This has necessitated clinicians to reconsider colistin, an “old sort” antibiotic which was deemed toxic for clinical use. Unfortunately, swift resistance towards colistin by K. pneumoniae has been reported in different parts of the world. The study aimed a...
