In recent years, with the wide application of carbapenems, the resistance of Enterobacterium to carbapenems has become increasingly high, leading to a large number of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP). These bacteria are often resistant to many different types of antibacterial drugs, including carbapenems, which leads to clinical treatment failure and seriously threatens the life safety of patients. Currently, these bacteria have become an independent risk factor for patients’ death. This article reviews the drug resistance, infection status and influencing factors, and medication therapy of CRKP, in order to facilitate the clinical diagnosis, treatment, and disease process control of CRKP infection, and provide reference for curbing bacterial drug resistance.
