The isolation of XDR P. aeruginosa isolates expressing several carbapenemases in a neonatal intensive care unit is of great concern due to the reduced treatment options, relying only on colistin, but not recommended in neonates, and apramycin, not yet approved for human therapy. Concerns were further elevated due to the resistance to cefiderocol and ATM/AVI, two novel and last-resort antibiotics recommended to treat infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria, particularly XDR P. aeruginosa in adults.
