Genomic surveillance, characterisation and intervention of a carbapenem-resistant <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> outbreak in critical care

2020-08-14

Abstract excerpt

Infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CR-Ab) have become increasingly prevalent in clinical settings and often result in significant morbidity and mortality due to their multidrug resistance (MDR). Here we present an integrated whole genome sequencing (WGS) response to a polymicrobial outbreak in a Brisbane hospital between 2016-2018. 28 CR-Ab (and 21 other MDR Gram negative bacilli) w...
