A Seven-Year Microbiological and Molecular Study of Bacteremias Due to Carbapenemase-Producing <i>Klebsiella Pneumoniae</i>: An Interrupted Time-Series Analysis of Changes in the Carbapenemase Gene’s Distribution after Introduction of Ceftazidime/Avibactam

A Seven-Year Microbiological and Molecular Study of Bacteremias Due to Carbapenemase-Producing <i>Klebsiella Pneumoniae</i>: An Interrupted Time-Series Analysis of Changes in the Carbapenemase Gene’s Distribution after Introduction of Ceftazidime/Avibactam

Background: Ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA) is a new option for the treatment of KPC-producing <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>. The aim of this study was to determine resistance patterns and carbapenemase genes among <i>K. pneumoniae</i> (CP-Kp) bacteremic isolates before and after...
