Diverse modes of ceftazidime/avibactam resistance acquisition in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa from a Chinese intensive care unit

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Objectives To investigate the mechanisms of ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA) resistance and the nosocomial dissemination of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) in an intensive care unit (ICU) in China. Methods Clinical CRPA and CRKP isolates were obtained from an ICU of a tertiary hospital in China from August 2020 to February 2021....
