Virulence and antimicrobial resistance gene profiling in multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa with evaluation of levofloxacin and amikacin therapy

Puntos clave

• The study reveals a significant prevalence of virulence and antimicrobial resistance genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains.
• Key evidence indicates that levofloxacin and amikacin exhibit varying levels of effectiveness against these resistant strains.
• Laboratory evaluation assessed the impact of treatment strategies on drug effectiveness and resistance patterns.
• The findings highlight the need for continuous surveillance and tailored therapies due to rising multidrug resistance.
