Klebsiella pneumoniae is a causative agent which is responsible for multiple infections along with
pneumonia. Along with pneumonia, Urine infections are another symptom that is caused by to invasion
of Klebsiella. It also causes blood steam infection (BSI), surgical site infection and pneumonia.
Klebsiella was responsible for 7.4% of the overall prevalence of bacterial infections. In this study, we
have reevaluated, summarized, and analyzed the prevalence of Klebsiella pneumoniae among
pregnant, newborn, and different age groups all together as well as the extent of Klebsiella pneumoniae
from urine samples worldwide. For example, Carbapenem-resistant bacteria According to a recent
study, Klebsiella pneumoniae is the leading cause of human mortality owing to antibiotic resistance in
Europe. Prevalence of Klebsiella pneumoniae is higher in Western, European, and African regions
(100%, 98.70% and 91.67% in Ohio, Lisbon, and Algeria respectively). 3.63 % is the lowest
percentage of Klebsiella pneumoniae found in urine samples in Taiwan. On the other hand, Enoxacin
does not exhibit any antibiotic resistance in any of the samples that were obtained from the majority of
nations, with the exception of Peshawar, Pakistan, where it exhibits 43.48% resistance. Conversely,
urine samples obtained from patients in Saudi Arabia shown no resistance to Ampicillin and lacked
multidrug resistance. With the exception of Malabo, patient urine samples from Ethiopia, Kenya, and
Nigeria do not reveal multidrug resistance to Klebsiella pneumoniae. However, further research from
Middle Eastern regions and third-world countries interprets the dangers of pneumonia as the main
cause of urinary tract infection (UTI). Other causes of this symptom are inflammation, trouble in
urination, Diabetes, hypertension, and many more hazards and consequences. Klebsiella pneumoniae
causes trouble in breathing, tremor, blood infection, and bloody diarrhea. Different countries show the
prevalence of Klebsiella pneumoniae and its antibiotic resistance along with risks.
