Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumonia infection outbreak in a tertiary urology clinic: analysis of influencing factors with a controlled trial

Background/aim: Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae CR-KP infections encountered in urology patients differentiate from infections caused by other factors, both in respect to prophylaxis and treatment stage, and require a special approach. We aimed to analyse the predisposing factors and the antibiotherapies for CR-KP infection outbreak in a tertiary urology clinic.Materials and methods: There were 75 patients in the CR-KP positive group Group I and 146 patients in the CR-KP negative group Group II . Analysis of the predisposing factors for CR-KP infection and comparison of the reinfection rate and the antibiotherapies in the 2 groups were the endpoints.Results: In the first group, age, comorbidity, previous antibiotic use, and nephrostomy tube rates were higher P = 0.015, P = 0.001, P = 0.004, and P
