Conclusion: Urinary tract infection the most commonly seen complication in pregnancy. Both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria were isolated. Klebsiella organism was isolated more commonly than other organisms in UTI in pregnant women.doi:10.5958/2455-6807.2016.00015.5Umar, Nawaz...
IfKlebsiella pneumoniaebacteria get into your urinary tract, they can cause an infection. This is more likely if you’ve had a catheter put in during a hospital stay. UTIs caused byKlebsiella pneumoniacan be life-threatening, especially in people who have serious illnesses. It’s important to ...
(Microbiology) a Gram-negative bacteria found in the respiratory, intestinal, and urinogenital tracts of humans and animals, which can cause pneumonia and urinary infections [C20: after EdwinKlebs(1834–913), German bacteriologist] Collins English Dictionary – Complete and Unabridged, 12th Edition ...
pneumoniae is a com- mon cause of urinary tract infections among immunocompetent children. In recent years, most K. pneumoniae infections are caused by strains termed "clas- sic" K. pneumoniae (cKp). These strains persist in hospital environments and cause infections in debilitated patients. cKp...
Klebsiella strains with the capsular (K-antigen) types 1, 2 and 3 are a major cause of respiratory tract infections (pneumonia), whereas those with the capsular (K-antigen) types 8, 9, 10 and 24 are involved in infections of the urinary tract. Klebsiella Strain Differentiation Methodology Be...
Background: Klebsiella pneumoniae ( K. pneumoniae ) urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common in the community and in hospital. The aims of this study were to evaluate antibiotic resistance and to describe the factors associated with urinary tract infections caused by K. pneumoniae . Methods: Th...
Klebsiella pneumoniae is the second most common uropathogen associated with uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) [1,2]. Treating infections by K. pneumoniae is becoming increasingly challenging owing to the dramatic increase in antimicrobial resistance [3,4]. K. pneumoniae strains can acquire...
Most pulmonary diseases caused by K pneumoniae are in the form of bronchopneumonia or bronchitis. These infections usually are hospital-acquired and have a more subtle presentation. Urinary tract infection Klebsiella UTIs [17] are clinically indistinguishable from UTIs caused by other common organisms. ...
(CRE) (eg,E coli, K pneumoniae) by inhibiting the production of enzymes that block carbapenem antibiotics, one of the more powerful classes of drugs in the antibiotic arsenal. In August 2017, meropenem/vaborbactam was FDA approved for complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI) caused by CRE....
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a very important infectious disease, and it is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in human.1 Klebsiella pneumoniae was the second most common cause of urinar...
