Journal ArticleDOI
Genomic Investigation Reveals Contaminated Detergent as the Source of an Extended-Spectrum-β-Lactamase-Producing Klebsiella michiganensis Outbreak in a Neonatal Unit
Paul Chapman,Paul Chapman,Brian M. Forde,Leah W. Roberts,Haakon Bergh,Debra Vasey,Amy V. Jennison,S. M. Moss,S. M. Moss,David L. Paterson,Scott A. Beatson,Patrick N A Harris +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate environmental sources of transmission during an outbreak of extended-spectrum-β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Klebsiella michiganensis colonizing neonates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrating multiple genomic technologies to investigate an outbreak of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacter hormaechei
Leah W. Roberts,Patrick N A Harris,Brian M. Forde,Nouri L. Ben Zakour,Elizabeth Catchpoole,Mitchell Stanton-Cook,Minh-Duy Phan,Hanna E. Sidjabat,Haakon Bergh,Claire Heney,Jayde A. Gawthorne,Jeffrey Lipman,Anthony M. Allworth,Kok-Gan Chan,Kok-Gan Chan,Teik Min Chong,Wai-Fong Yin,Mark A. Schembri,David L. Paterson,Scott A. Beatson +19 more
TL;DR: The application of several complementary whole-genome sequencing technologies to characterise a hospital outbreak of blaIMP-4 carbapenemase-producing E. hormaechei provided an in-depth analysis of the outbreak, and the true relationship of subsequent isolates to the initial outbreak was resolved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outbreak of health care-associated Burkholderia cenocepacia bacteremia and infection attributed to contaminated sterile gel used for central line insertion under ultrasound guidance and other procedures.
Ramon Z. Shaban,Samuel Maloney,John Gerrard,Peter Collignon,Deborough Macbeth,Marilyn Cruickshank,Anna Hume,Amy V. Jennison,Rikki M.A. Graham,Haakon Bergh,Heather L. Wilson,Petra Derrington +11 more
TL;DR: All institutions where the product is used should look back at Burkholderia sp blood culture isolates for speciation to ensure this outbreak is no larger than currently recognized given likely global distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genomic analysis of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in Queensland reveals widespread transmission of bla IMP-4 on an IncHI2 plasmid.
Leah W. Roberts,Elizabeth Catchpoole,Amy V. Jennison,Haakon Bergh,Anna Hume,Claire Heney,Narelle George,David L. Paterson,Mark A. Schembri,Scott A. Beatson,Patrick N A Harris,Patrick N A Harris +11 more
TL;DR: Investigation of molecular epidemiology of bla IMP-4 in Queensland, Australia found that persistence of the carbapenemase gene is driven by both presence on a common plasmid and clonal spread of certain E. hormaechei lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative genomics and antimicrobial resistance profiling of Elizabethkingia isolates reveals nosocomial transmission and in vitro susceptibility to fluoroquinolones, tetracyclines and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole
Delaney Burnard,Delaney Burnard,Letitia Gore,Andrew Henderson,Ama Ranasinghe,Haakon Bergh,Kyra Cottrell,Derek S. Sarovich,Erin P. Price,David L. Paterson,Patrick N A Harris,Patrick N A Harris +11 more
TL;DR: Comparative genomics of clinical and environmental strains identified evidence of nosocomial transmission in patients, indicating probable infection from a hospital reservoir and almost ubiquitous resistance to aminoglycosides, carbapenems, cephalosporins, and penicillins.
