Persisting intrahospital transmission of multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and challenges for infection control.

Isabelle Vock1, Sarah Tschudin-Sutter1.   

Abstract

In the past several decades, the incidence of Klebsiella pneumoniae harboring resistance mechanisms against multiple antibiotic agents has increased on a global scale. We discuss reasons for ongoing transmission of multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae in healthcare settings, which has resulted in the successful spread and establishment of this pathogen. It is now one of the most important causes of healthcare-associated infections worldwide.
