Issue Date: | 20-Nov-2025 | Copyright year: | 2024 | Abstract: | Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) are becoming an increasing global concern. Initially, these infections were primarily reported in Australia among patients with a history of overseas healthcare exposure or travel. However, since 2014, multiple local healthcare outbreaks have been documented. This poster details an outbreak of OXA-181 carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae at various sites within a major health service in Melbourne, Victoria. | Conference Name: | Australian College of Infection Prevention Conference | Conference Start Date: | 2025-11-17 | Conference End Date: | 2025-11-20 | Conference Location: | Melbourne, Australia | URI: | https://repository.monashhealth.org/monashhealthjspui/handle/1/55451 | Type: | Conference poster |
