Abstract excerpt
Brazil is a country with an approximate 50% prevalence rate of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CR-PA). Therefore, monitoring the spread of high-risk clones from complex genotypes of CR-PA isolates is crucial for developing effective strategies to control antimicrobial resistance. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the dissemination of high-risk clones P. aeruginosa carrying blaKPC-2 in...
