Epidemiological characteristics of New Delhi Metallo-β-Lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in the Fourth hospital of Hebei Medical University.

ABSTRACT: The epidemiological characteristics of New Delhi Metallo-β-Lactamase-Producing (NDM) Enterobacteriaceae were analyzed to provide theoretical support for clarifying the distribution characteristics of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) in the hospital environment and early identification of susceptible patients. From January 2017 to December 2021,42 strains of NDM-producing Enterobacteriaceae were gathered from the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University, primarily Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterobacter cloacae. The micro broth dilution method combined with the Kirby-Bauer method was used to determine the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of antibiotics. The carbapenem phenotype was detected by the modified carbapenem inactivation method (mCIM) and E
