Abstract
A large outbreak of infection and colonization with multiple genera of gram-negative bacilli carrying the metallo-β-lactamase gene blaIMP-4 occurred in a 36-bed intensive care unit at a tertiary hospital in Australia. The organisms emerged rapidly, caused severe infections, and contributed to mortality. Controlling the spread of these organisms remains a challenge for all staff involved.
