Bloodstream infections caused by extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae: risk factors, molecular epidemiology, and clinical outcome.
PMID: 164367022006Italy
Key Findings
The study identified various extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) genes, including bla SHV-2a, bla SHV-5, bla SHV-8, bla SHV-11, bla SHV-12, bla TEM-1, bla TEM-24, bla TEM-93, and bla TEM-116, in Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates. These genes confer resistance to cephalosporins, penicillins, and monobactams.
