Comparative genomic insights into carbapenem-resistant versus susceptible Acinetobacter baumannii in Shanghai hospital settings: a multi-center molecular surveillance study.

Abstract excerpt

Background: Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is priority pathogen for nosocomial infection control worldwide. This study aimed to elucidate differences in distribution, genotyping and antimicrobial resistance patterns between CRAB and carbapenem-susceptible Acinetobacter baumannii (CSAB) strains isolated from healthcare environments. Materials and methods: A total of 1,812 environmental samples...
