Abstract:
In recent years,the incidence of Elizabethkingia infection has increased significantly.Elizabethkingia can cause pneumonia,meningitis,and bacteremia,etc.The high rate of drug resistance leads to prolonged hospital stay and increased mortality,posing a heavy burden to patients and society.This paper reviews the epidemiology,pathogenesis and drug resistance of Elizabethkingia,with a view to providing a reference for the clinical diagnosis,treatment,prevention and control of Elizabethkingia infection.
