U81.03: Other multidrug-resistant Klebsiellae 2MRGN NeoPäd
There is evidence that you have bacteria which are resistant to many antibiotics. The bacteria are from the genus Klebsiella.
Bacteria occur everywhere in the environment. For example, bacteria can be transmitted by air or skin contact. Some bacteria frequently cause diseases if you come into contact with them. Other bacteria can also live on the skin or in the intestines without making us sick. However, you can be weakened by other medical conditions. In that case, you can also fall ill as a result of these otherwise harmless bacteria.
Certain drugs are used to fight bacteria. These drugs are called antibiotics. Some bacteria have become resistant to a large number of antibiotics. Very special antibiotics are then needed for treatment. Other measures are frequently also taken to keep the resistant bacteria from spreading further.
