Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The global rise of multidrug-resistant Enterobacterales, particularly extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)- and carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, poses a critical threat to intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Despite the clinical importance of these pathogens in sub-Saharan Africa, studies on their molecular characterization remains scarce. METHODS: We performed...
