Klebsiella pneumoniae Bloodstream Infection: Epidemiology and Impact of Inappropriate Empirical Therapy

Klebsiella pneumoniae Bloodstream Infection: Epidemiology and Impact of Inappropriate Empirical Therapy

Multidrug resistance associated with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) and Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) among K. pneumoniae is endemic in southern Europe. We retrospectively analyzed the impact of resistance on the appropriateness of empirical therapy and treatment outcomes of K....
