Significados de CRKP en inglés

There were several papers about CRKP during the ICAAC meeting last week.

In most cases, CRKP responds to only two drugs, neither of which are ideal treatments.

CONCLUSIONS Adverse risk factors correlated with poor clinical outcomes in patients with CRKP were determined.

We also conducted a retrospective review of the microbiology database for any missed cases of CRKP.

Early identification of CRKP in patients is paramount.

We evaluated the impact of CRKP strain type and treatment on outcomes of patients with CRKP bacteriuria.

We first performed an antibiotic susceptibility test on CRKP strains using the Kirby-Bauer disc agar diffusion method.

Two-fifths of patients with CRKP had clinical infection and 38% died during the current hospitalization.

After she had been there two months, she was also diagnosed with CRKP, and also began receiving colistin.

These data provide essential insight into development of new infection control measures to halt the transmission of CRKP in clinical settings.

Therefore, our study aimed to describe the clinical characteristics and identify the risk factors affecting clinical outcomes in patients with CRKP.

Importantly, strains isolated from sputum and fecal samples often displayed identical PFGE profiles, suggesting that CRKP may also colonize the respiratory tract.

Moreover, fully understanding the risk factors affecting clinical outcome and actively providing targeted treatment can improve the cure rate of patients with CRKP.

Contact isolation, hand hygiene, environmental cleaning, and staff education may control CRKP outbreak in the acute care setting, but did not prevent endemicity.

We initiated a prospective study to follow all cases of CRKP as well as the active surveillance of patients in areas where cases were identified.

Conclusion: CRKP is highly prevalent in ICU patients in Zhejiang Province with strains isolated from respiratory exhibiting higher virulence potential than those from GI tract.
