Ceftazidime-avibactam combined with another in vitro non-susceptible antimicrobial, especially carbapenems, fosfomycin and tigecycline, could significantly decrease the 30-day mortality rate for critically ill patients with carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infection. Further investigation should be carried out to confirm this conclusion and identify autofit antimicrobials in ceftazidime-avibactam combination schemes.
