Clinical and Microbiological characteristics of patients with ceftazidime/avibactam-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing K. pneumoniae strains
CZA-resistant KPC-producing K. pneumoniae is associated with high mortality. Strains producing KPC variants are more likely to exhibit restored meropenem susceptibility and higher levels of CZA resistance.
