Research Article: Characterisation of a Novel Hybrid IncFIIpHNA:IncR:IncN Plasmid Co-Harboring blaNDM- and blaKPC- from a Clinical ST Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Strain

Date Published: 2023-12-12

Introduction:
Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) poses a global threat to clinical practice because of its ability to cause severe infections with high mortality rates. , Carbapenemase production is the dominant cause of carbapenem resistance in carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae , with KPC and NDM being the most common. KPC- carbapenemase, encoded by bla KPC- is predominant in Klebsiella pneumoniae and can be potently inhibited by new ?-lactamase inhibitors such as avibactam, vaborbactam, and relebactam.…
