Rapid cross-border emergence of NDM-5-producing Escherichia coli in the European Union/European Economic Area, 2012 to June 2022

Whole genome sequencing data of 874 Escherichia coli isolates carrying bla (NDM-5) from 13 European Union/European Economic Area countries between 2012 and June 2022 showed the predominance of sequence types ST167, ST405, ST410, ST361 and ST648, and an increasing frequency of detection. Nearly a thi...

Descripción
Sumario:Whole genome sequencing data of 874 Escherichia coli isolates carrying bla (NDM-5) from 13 European Union/European Economic Area countries between 2012 and June 2022 showed the predominance of sequence types ST167, ST405, ST410, ST361 and ST648, and an increasing frequency of detection. Nearly a third (30.6%) of these isolates were associated with infections and more than half (58.2%) were predicted to be multidrug-resistant. Further spread of E. coli carrying bla (NDM-5) would leave limited treatment options for serious E. coli infections.
