    Abstract

    INTRODUCTION: A. baumannii strains are proven to be highly resistant to the majority of currently used antimicrobial drugs, including carbapenems. In this species, carbapenem resistance is mostly caused by β-lactamase. Carbapenem-hydrolyzing class D oxacillinases are common among multidrug-resistant (MDR) A. baumannii strains. The current investigation was done to assess the presence and distribution of blaOXA genes among multidrug-resistant A. baumannii isolated from the ICU.
