Abstract excerpt
Background Colistin resistance in P. aeruginosa (CRPA) is due to the appearance of superbug strains. As this pathogen gains more transferrable resistance mechanisms and continues to adapt to acquire additional resistance mechanisms during antimicrobial therapy rapidly, we face the growing threat of CRPA in bloodstream infections (BSI). This study designed to evaluate the frequency of CRPA strains producing...
