Abstract excerpt
Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteremic pneumonia carries exceptionally high mortality, yet there is a paucity of genomic characterization of the strains causing this infection. We performed hybrid sequencing (Illumina and Oxford Nanopore) of 12 non-redundant P. aeruginosa isolates from patients with severe bacteremic pneumonia admitted to the intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital between 2015 and 2023. The 12...
