Core Tip This study highlights the high prevalence of multidrug-resistant Klebsiella species in a tertiary care hospital, with 59.2% producing ESBL and 47.7% AmpC beta-lactamases. Co-production of both enzymes was observed in 26.9% of isolates, highlighting the urgent need for routine surveillance, phenotypic confirmation, and stringent infection control measures to guide targeted antimicrobial therapy and curb the spread of resistant strains. These findings provide critical insights for clinicians and microbiologists aiming to combat nosocomial Klebsiella infections effectively.
