We describe 2 cases of extensively drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection caused by a strain of public health concern, as it was recently associated with a nationwide outbreak of contaminated artificial tears. Both cases were detected through database review of genomes in the Enhanced Detection System for Hospital-Associated Transmission (EDS-HAT), a routine genome sequencing–based surveillance program. We generated a high-quality reference genome for the outbreak strain from an isolate from our center and examined the mobile elements encoding bla VIM-80 and bla -GES-9 carbapenemases. We used publicly available Pseudomonas aeruginosa genomes to explore the genetic relatedness and antimicrobial resistance genes of the outbreak strain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
