Detection of Oral Pathogens and Potential Virulent of Dominant Klebsiella pneumoniae
Key Points
The aim is to detect oral pathogens and assess the virulence potential of dominant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains.
Conducted surveillance in oral oncology and trauma settings.
Monitored the prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) strains.
Analyzed virulence factors associated with detected strains.
Klebsiella pneumoniae was frequently found in oral health settings.
Enhanced virulence potential was noted in certain detected strains of K. pneumoniae.
Abstract
K. pneumoniae is frequently detected in oral oncology and trauma settings, underscoring the need for continuous surveillance of CRKP strains with enhanced virulence potential.
