Abstract
Carbapenemase-producing Gram-negative (CPGN) bacteria impose life-threatening infections with limited treatment options. Rigor and rapid detection of CPGN-associated infections is usually associated with proper treatment and better disease prognosis. Accordingly, this study aimed at evaluating the phenotypic methods versus genotypic methods used for the detection of such pathogens and determining their sensitivity/specificity values.
