Analysis on the Infection Risk, Prognosis, and Drug Sensitivity of Klebsiella Pneumoniae.

May 5, 2020 updated by: National Taiwan University Hospital
Nosocomial infections are increasing rapidly both internationally and domestically, especially carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infections. However, there were still lack of evidence about the risk and prognosis in Taiwan. The choice of drug and related sensitivity test was also limited. We would analyze the infection risk, prognosis, and drug sensitivity of Klebsiella pneumoniae and focus on strategy to manage carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infections.
