Genomic insights into a multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa ST463 clinical isolate co-harbouring blaKPC-2 and blaNDM-9

Key Points

• The research aims to characterize a clinical isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with multiple drug resistance mechanisms.
• Isolation of P. aeruginosa strain from clinical samples in China
• Molecular analysis to detect blaKPC-2 and blaNDM-9 genes
• Assessment of antimicrobial susceptibility
• Identified a P. aeruginosa strain co-harbouring blaKPC-2 and blaNDM-9
• The isolate shows resistance to multiple antibiotics
• Emphasizes increased clinical surveillance for similar strains
