“…In present study we found the reduce susceptibility for many potent antimicrobial drug. These findings supported by other studies [14,15].Our overview of the microbial resistance patterns especially colistin resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in a tertiary care hospital suggest that specific infection control strategies, periodic targeted surveillance and stringent antibiotic usage policies including restricted antimicrobial policy and antibiotic cycling, may be the appropriate measures for dealing with infections caused by CRE in ICU settings in the future.…”

“…Similar to our study results, literature also reports Klebsiella pneumoniae as the most common resistant isolates, followed by Escherichia coli and/or Enterobacter species. (Sodhi, et al, 2020) Journal and also similar to a study conducted at tertiary care hospital in Egypt by (Hassan, et al, 2020).…”

“…In studies reported across the world, mcr-1 has been predominantly reported in E. coli whereas K. pneumoniae accounts for less than 5% of the total mcr positive isolates to date (Sun et al, 2018;Nang et al, 2019). In contrast to global data, studies from India indicate that colistin resistance is more common in K. pneumoniae than in any other bacterial species (Pragasam et al, 2016;Singh et al, 2018;Sodhi et al, 2020). Also, very few studies are available on genomic characterisation of colistin resistant isolates.…”
