Epidemiology, clinical profiles and outcomes	2017-06-20		.txt	text/plain	5548	345	45	For the purpose of controlling the spread of CRE in our institution, we recommend considering active surveillance cultures and screening patients transferred from other hospitals or coming from highly endemic settings at admission for these organisms. The hospital epidemiologic database was used to identify admitted patients with blood, respiratory, urine, or wound cultures positive for CRE. After 7 days, urine culture showed >100,000 cfu/ml Klebsiella pneumonia which was resistant to all antibiotics including carbapenems and sensitive only to col-istin. The patient was discharged after completing 2 months in the intensive care (ICU) when blood culture showed negative result. In fact, the first two clinical cases of OXA-48-type carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in the United States were isolated from patients recently hospitalized in Saudi Arabia and India [33] .
