What is Genomic Trends of CPE in Hong Kong Hospitals about?

A longitudinal study of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) in Hong Kong hospitals revealed a significant increase in CPE isolates from 2011 to 2018, with the incidence rising from 0.05 to 9.6 per 10,000 patient-days. The predominant carbapenemase genes identified were blaNDM and blaIMP, with Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp. being the most common species. Whole-genome sequencing highlighted the diversity of plasmids and the need for enhanced containment strategies to address the growing thr
