Molecular Epidemiological Characteristics of blaIMP-4-Carrying Klebsiella pneumoniae ST-11 in Hospitalized Patients
The IMP-4 was the most predominant carbapenemase and <i>bla</i> <sub>IMP-4</sub> bearing <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> ST-11 was spreading in the hospital. Nosocomial infections, antibiotic exposure, and urinary and venous/arterial catheterization within 3 months were the risk factors for developing CRKP infection.
