Carbapenem resistance increased significantly over the years. Bacteremia 48 hours after hospitalization and hospitalization within the past 3 months were determined to be risk factors for carbapenem resistance. Carbapenem-resistant infections are still nosocomial infections. Patients should be hospitalized for as a short time as possible, and both patients and their physicians should follow infection control and prevention methods.
