Here, we report the complete genome sequence of the multidrug-resistant (MDR) strain Pseudomonas aeruginosa NRD619, assembled via long- and short-read hybrid assembly. P. aeruginosa is a Gram-negative bacterial pathogen that is a significant public health burden. NRD619 was isolated from a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) draining sinus tract.
