| Research Abstract |
Infection control for MDRP was initiated based on the mechanism of multidrug-resistance. Amelioration of the urine-collecting systems and intervention for proper usage of the carbapenem antibiotics were performed, then consumption of antibiotics and isolation rate of antibiotic resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa were significantly reduced. From the genomic research, our results indicated the diversity of MDRP, possible co-existence of different clones and same clones in a patient, spreading in a ward and in a hospital.
