Resumen

The New Delhi metallo- b -lactamase (NDM-1) was initially identi- fied in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates in Sweden from a patient previously hospitalized in India. 1 Subse- quently, isolates harbouring NDM have been mainly found in the Indian subcontinent, the Balkans and the UK, but also have been reported from many different countries in Asia, Europe, Africa, Oceania and North America. 2 However, NDM producers have not been reported yet in Latin America. Here, we report two NDM-1-producing K. pneumoniae isolates identified in Guatemala.
