About this trial

Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are increasingly identified in children in China. Pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) is the high-risk area. However, data on the epidemiology of CRE in hospitalized children in PICU are limited. The objectives of this study are to characterize the risk factors for colonization or infection with CRE and describe the microbiologic characteristics of pediatric CRE isolates. The investigators will perform a single retrospective study from January 2018 to December 2019 at PICU of Children's Hospital of Fudan University .
