Abstract Evaluating all inpatient carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections over a 1-year period, 47% were caused by carbapenemase-producing (CP) organisms. Compared with non-CP-CRE patients, patients with CP-CRE had an 18-fold greater odds of a recent stay in a foreign health care facility and a 3-fold greater odds of transfer from a post–acute care facility.
