Background
Microbiology
- Encapsulated Gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, aerobic, non-motile bacillus within the family Enterobacteriaceae
- Previously classified as Klebsiella
- Notable members include:
Management
- Intrinsic resistance to ampicillin from a chromosomal beta lactamase
- Usually susceptible to beta lactam-beta lactamase combinations, cephalosporins, carbapenems, co-trimoxazole, and fluoroquinolones
