Klebsiella pneumonia is a type of bacterial pneumonia caused by infection with the Klebsiella pneumoniae bacterium, a gram-negative bacteria which is typically carried in fecal material and ingested through accidental aspiration or exposure to contaminated medical instruments. This bacterial infection is usually opportunistic, meaning that it appears in patients who are already battling an existing medical problem or infection, and it can be very dangerous for some patients.
