Molecular Evolution of Extensively Drug-Resistant (XDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strains From Patients and Hospital Environment in a Prolonged Outbreak

Molecular Evolution of Extensively Drug-Resistant (XDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strains From Patients and Hospital Environment in a Prolonged Outbreak

In this study, we aimed to elucidate a prolonged outbreak of extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa, at two adjacent hospitals over a time course of 4 years. Since all strains exhibited a similar antibiotic susceptibility pattern and carried the carbapenemase gene blaVIM, a monoclon...
