Emergence of carbapenemase-producing and colistin resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae ST101 high-risk clone in Turkey

Abstract: Carbapenemase-producing and colistin resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae has become a worldwide healthcare problem. This study describes molecular characterization of carbapenemase-producing and colistin resistant clinical K. pneumoniae isolates.A total of 93 non-replicate carbapenem and colistin resistant K. pneumoniae were recovered from clinical specimens in a university hospital during 2017–2019. Detection of blaOXA-48, blaKPC, blaNDM-1, blaIMP, blaVIM-1 and mcr-1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -7, and -8 genes was perf… Show more

“…Bloodstream infections caused by colistin-resistant (ColR) Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) strains are a cause for concern due to the potential for complications, poor clinical outcomes, and limited treatment options [ 8 , 9 ]. The Polymyxins (colistin and polymyxin B) have made a comeback as a treatment option for infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae since there are very few new antimicrobials in the pipeline [ 10 , 11 ].…”
