Epidemiological characterization of Acinetobacter baumannii bloodstream isolates from a Chinese Burn Institute: A three-year study

Highlights • This study was performed in Chinese Burn Institute for 3 years. • Almost all the isolates showed extensively drug-resistant phenotypes. • Most all the isolates contained at least 2 types of β – lactam resistance genes. • These isolates were grouped into 10 known and 18 unknown ST types....
