Infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative pathogens in hospitalized children

Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative pathogens (CRPs) are emerging as major causes of nosocomial infections that increase morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs. Little is known about CRP infections in children. All newly detected infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella spp, Pseudomona...

Zusammenfassung:	Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative pathogens (CRPs) are emerging as major causes of nosocomial infections that increase morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs. Little is known about CRP infections in children. All newly detected infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella spp, Pseudomonas spp or Acinetabocater spp in hospitalized patients are prospectively reported to the Hellenic Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
