Genomic analysis of carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii outbreak in a burn intensive care unit of a tertiary-care hospital in Madrid, Spain
WGS enabled detailed tracking of CRAB's genomic evolution during the outbreak, identifying mutations associated with increased cefiderocol MICs. This information supported effective infection control measures, highlighting the utility of WGS in managing hospital outbreaks.
