Emergence of carbapenem-producing enterobacteriaceae (CPE) and other multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria in neonates at a tertiary-level NICU in Tanzania: a point prevalence study
A high prevalence of colonization with high-risk clones was observed in neonates, highlighting the urgent need for strengthened MDR-surveillance, infection control, and antibiotic stewardship in the NICU at MNH.
