Economic burden of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in Chinese hospitals: A 2019 analysis
CRKP infections impose significant health and economic burden on China. Enhanced infection control, antimicrobial stewardship, and investment in rapid diagnostics and novel therapeutics are urgently needed. The methodology used in this study can also support burden assessments for other resistant pathogens in similar contexts.
