2300. Molecular Epidemiology of Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) Causing Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infections (CLABSI) in Three ICU Units in Egypt
BACKGROUND: CLABSI caused by CRKP is associated with high mortality. Identification of the genetic basis for carbapenem resistance is crucial for selecting the proper antimicrobial therapy, and testing for bacterial clonality. We aimed to study the genetic basis of CRKP causing CLABSI in 3 ICUs, and...
