Abstract:Purpose
Klebsiella pneumoniae
carbapenemase (KPC) and New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM) co-producing carbapenem-resistant
Klebsiella pneumoniae
(KPC-NDM-CRKP) isolates have been increasingly reported worldwide but have not yet been systematically studied. Thus, we have conducted a study to compare the risk factors, molecular characteristics, and mortality involved in clinical bloodstream infections (BSIs) caused by KPC-NDM-CRKP and KPC-CRKP strains.
