A multicenter collection of bacteremic isolates of Escherichia coli ( n = 423), Klebsiella pneumoniae ( n = 372), Pseudomonas aeruginosa ( n = 300), and Acinetobacter baumannii complex ( n = 199) was analyzed for susceptibility. Xpert Carba-R assay and sequencing for mcr genes were performed for carbapenem- or colistin-resistant isolates. Nineteen (67.8%) carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae ( n = 28) and one (20%) carbapenem-resistant E. coli ( n = 5) isolate harbored bla KPC ( n = 17), bla OXA-48 ( n = 2), and bla VIM ( n = 1) genes.
