Clonal spread of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing KPC-2 beta-lactamase in Croatian. University Hospital
In this study we report for the first time clonal spread of KPC-2 producing K. pneumoniae at neurosurgery ward of a Croatian University Hospital. Three patients were involved and colonized with KPC-2 producing strain but without any symptoms of infection. The strains were clonally related and harboured additional blaCTX-M-15 gene. Due to prompt and effective infection control measures the strain did not spread to other hospital units
