AbstractA carbapenem-sparing regimen of tigecycline plus gentamicin or colistin was effective for treating 24 of 26 (92%) Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae infectious episodes in 22 polytrauma intensive care unit patients without comorbidities. The 30-day crude mortality rate was 14%. Regimens were considered appropriate in 12% of episodes according to the Vitek 2 System and in 100% based on E-test.
