Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: This study continues the surveillance of antimicrobial resistance and genetic determinants of hypervirulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa associated with combat injuries in Ukraine. AIM: The aim of the study is to characterise the antibiotic resistance patterns and prevalence of high-risk international lineages of P. aeruginosa isolated from infected wounds in Ukraine during the war in 2022-2023....
