Article Synopsis
- The strain from the two patients (P0 and P1) was traced back to the Middle East, with whole-genome sequencing confirming high genetic similarity, highlighting the effectiveness of genomic analysis in tracking infections.
- Notably, P1 showed signs of colonization 41 to 61 days after possible exposure to P0, despite three negative screenings, suggesting that current screening methods may need revisions to better detect long-term incubations of C. auris.
Background: Multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria outbreaks represent a major threat in intensive care units. Patients may then be exposed to drug-related direct toxicity during such outbreaks. The objective of this study was to explore the impact of an outbreak of imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (IR-AB) on renal outcomes.

Small outbreaks of invasive wound mucormycosis (IWM) have already been reported in burn units without extensive microbiological investigations. We faced an outbreak of IWM in our center and investigated the clinical isolates with whole-genome sequencing (WGS) analysis.
