Article Synopsis
- * A study conducted whole genome sequencing of MCRPEC strains from livestock and other sources in Ha Nam province, revealing 34 unique sequence types with 3 new ones identified in samples from chickens and flies.
- * All analyzed MCRPEC isolates (50 out of 50) were found to be multidrug-resistant, carrying between 5 to 22 AMR genes, with plasmid transmission driving the spread of these resistance genes rather than clonal reproduction of the strains.
Background: MDR bacteria including carbapenem-resistant are recognized as an important cause of hospital-acquired infections worldwide. This investigation seeks to determine the molecular characterization and antibiotic resistance genes associated with carbapenem-resistant .
Methods: We conducted WGS and phylogenetic analysis of 72 carbapenem-resistant isolated from hospital-acquired infection patients from August 2011 to March 2015 in three major hospitals in Hanoi, Vietnam.
Background: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the commonest hospital-acquired infection (HAI) in intensive care. In Asia, VAP is increasingly caused by resistant gram-negative organisms. Despite the global antimicrobial resistance crisis, the epidemiology of VAP is poorly documented in Asia.
