Clinical and microbiological characteristics of OXA-23- and OXA-143-producing Acinetobacter baumannii in ICU patients at a teaching hospital, Brazil

Abstract: In this study, clonally unrelated OXA-123- and OXA-143-producing A. baumannii strains in ICU patients were strongly correlated to colonization with infected patients being associated with a poor outcome.

“…(55) reported a frequency of 41.7% for non-baumannii . We did not find the bla OXA-143-like gene and the studies report absence (54), low (56) and high frequencies for this carbapenemase gene (52). Some other studies show null or low prevalences of bla OXA-58-like (31, 57) and bla OXA-72-like (54, 58), while they were not identified in the present study.…”

“…OXA-143 enzyme (Class D carbapenem-hydrolyzing enzyme) in Acinetobacter baumannii was firstly described by Higgins, Poirel [37]. Furthermore, Neves, Clemente [38] found that OXA-23 was the most common acquired cabapenemase (51.2%) followed by OXA-143 (18.6%) among carbapenem- resistant Acinetobacter baumanii which confirm their important role in carbapenem resistance. In this study, OXA-143 was the most common followed by OXA-23.…”

“…Further identified variants of the OXA-143 group include OXA-182, OXA-231, OXA-253, and OXA-255. OXA-143 is still detected in Brazil [157,158], and, although believed that this country is the major epicenter, OXA-143 was detected in 2017 for the first time in 14% of A. baumannii isolates from teaching hospitals in the central part of Iran [159]. The variant OXA-231 was also isolated from a nosocomial A. baumannii isolate recovered from urine of a female patient, at Londrina, Brazil.…”
