A Multicenter Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance Among <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> in Hospitals of the Greater Accra Region of Ghana
MDR <i>P. aeruginosa</i> and carbapenem Resistant <i>P.aeruginosa</i> (CRPA), mostly <i>blaNDM-1</i> producers, are major causes of infection in our setting. Restricting carbapenem use through stewardship and strengthening infection control is essential to limit CRPA spread.
