Clinical and Molecular Epidemiology of Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Producing Klebsiella spp.: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses.

ABSTRACT: Healthcare-related infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Klebsiella spp. are of major concern. To control transmission, deep understanding of the transmission mechanisms is needed. This systematic review aimed to identify risk factors and sources, clonal relatedness using molecular techniques, and the most effective control strategies for ESBL-producing Klebsiella spp. A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and Outbreak Database was performed. We identified 2771 articles from November 25th, 1960 until April 7th, 2014 of which 148 were included in the systematic review and 23 in a random-effects meta-analysis study. The random-effects meta-analyses showed that underlying disease or condition (odds ratio [OR] = 6.25; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.85 to 13.66) generated the highest pooled estimate. ESBL-producing Klebsiella spp. were spread through person-to-person contact and via sources in the environment; we identified both monoclonal and polyclonal presence. Multi-faceted interventions are needed to prevent transmission of ESBL-producing Klebsiella spp.

Project description:Klebsiella oxytoca complex (KoC) species may overproduce their chromosomal class A OXY β-lactamases, conferring reduced susceptibility to piperacillin-tazobactam, expanded-spectrum cephalosporins and aztreonam. Moreover, since clavulanate maintains its ability to inhibit these enzymes, the resulting resistance phenotype may falsely resemble the production of acquired extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs). In this work, a collection of 44 KoC strains of human and animal origin was characterized with whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and broth microdilution (BMD) susceptibility testing. Comparison of ESBL producers (n = 11; including CTX-M-15 [n = 6] and CTX-M-1 [n = 5] producers) and hyperproducers of OXYs (n = 21) showed certain phenotypic differences: piperacillin-tazobactam (MIC90s: 16 versus >64 μg/mL), cefotaxime (MIC90s: 64 versus 4 μg/mL), ceftazidime (MIC90s: 32 versus 4 μg/mL), cefepime (MIC90s: 8 versus 4 μg/mL) and associated resistance to non-β-lactams (e.g., trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole: 90.9% versus 14.3%, respectively). However, a clear phenotype-based distinction between the two groups was difficult. Therefore, we evaluated 10 different inhibitor-based confirmatory tests to allow such categorization. All tests showed a sensitivity of 100%. However, only combination disk tests (CDTs) with cefepime/cefepime-clavulanate and ceftazidime/ceftazidime-clavulanate or the double-disk synergy test (DDST) showed high specificity (100%, 95.5%, and 100%, respectively). All confirmatory tests in BMD or using the MIC gradient strip did not perform well (specificity, ≤87.5%). Of note, ceftazidime/ceftazidime-avibactam tests also exhibited low specificity (CDT, 87.5%; MIC gradient strip, 77.8%). Our results indicate that standard antimicrobial susceptibility profiles can raise some suspicion, but only the use of cefepime/cefepime-clavulanate CDT or DDST can guarantee distinction between ESBL-producing KoC strains and those hyperproducing OXY enzymes.
