Tracing the evolutionary trajectory of the IncP-2 plasmid co-harboring blaIMP-45 and blaVIM-1: an outbreak of Pseudomonas aeruginosa co-producing IMP-45 and VIM-1 carbapenemases in China

Tracing the evolutionary trajectory of the IncP-2 plasmid co-harboring blaIMP-45 and blaVIM-1: an outbreak of Pseudomonas aeruginosa co-producing IMP-45 and VIM-1 carbapenemases in China

BackgroundCarbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) poses a significant global health risk, particularly for immunocompromised individuals. This study documents an outbreak of CRPA strains co-harboring blaVIM-1 and blaIMP-45 on IncP-2 plasmids in a Chinese tertiary hospital, resulting in po...
