Prediction of Prognosis in Adult Patients With Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Infection

Jihui Chen et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the clinical information of adult patients with carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) infection, established a nomogram for predicting mortality risk, and determined the effectiveness of different antimicrobial regimens. The results can help clinicians identify high-risk adult patients with CRKP infection, improve treatment outcomes, and reduce mortality.

Epidemiology, Risk Factors and Outcome Due to Multidrug Resistant Organisms in Paediatric Liver Transplant Patients in the Era of Antimicrobial Stewardship and Screening

Anita Verma et al.

Summary: The incidence of multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) colonization and infections in pediatric liver transplant recipients is low but associated with high morbidity and no mortality. Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) and active screening of MDRO can significantly reduce the infection rates of MRSA, VRE, and CRE. Some risk factors are unavoidable, but a multifaceted approach including AMS and MDRO screening can help monitor antibiotic overuse, early initiation of appropriate antibiotic therapy, and effective infection prevention strategies.

Analysis of Risk Factors for Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Infection and Its Effect on the Outcome of Early Infection After Kidney Transplantation

Fei Zhang et al.

Summary: The prevalence of early infections after kidney transplant is high, with CRKP infection closely associated with poor prognosis. Prolonged mechanical ventilation and CRKP infection are independent risk factors for one-year postoperative mortality.

Carbapenemase-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Colonization and Infection in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients: A Single-Center, Retrospective Study

Nicole Pagani et al.

Summary: CP-Kp infection poses a serious threat to solid organ transplant recipients, with high mortality rates associated with invasive infections. Invasive infections and gastrointestinal colonization are significantly associated with one-year mortality, highlighting the importance of preventing and managing these infections in SOT patients.
