ABSTRACTExtended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) were present in high proportions of Escherichia coli(25% [9 of 36]) and Klebsiella pneumoniaeisolates (17% [9 of 52]) causing pediatric septicemia at a tertiary hospital in Tanzania. Patients with septicemia due to ESBL-producing organisms had a significantly higher fatality rate than those with non-ESBL isolates (71% versus 39%, P= 0.039). This is the first report of the CTX-M-15 genotype of ESBLs on the African continent and the first observation of SHV-12 genotype in an isolate of Salmonella entericaserotype Newport. |
