Phenotypic detection of ESBL and MBL producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in critically ill patients with nosocomial pneumonia
Background: Drug-resistant bacteria are major determinants of hospital-acquired infections that are particularly troublesome in intensive care units (ICU). Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) is one of the most prevalent causes of nosocomial pneumonia. To overcome the problem of antibiotic-resist...
