Figure 1. Geographical distribution of carbapenem resistance mechanisms amongst isolates submitted during the EuSCAPE survey.
a, Total number of isolates submitted by participating countries that were analysed in this study. Isolates are partitioned into those that possess one or more of four major carbapenemase genes (blaKPC-like, blaOXA-48-like, blaNDM-like and blaVIM-like) regardless of whether they were submitted as carbapenem-non-susceptible or -susceptible, those which lack any of the four genes that were submitted as carbapenem-non-susceptible (“Other mechanism”), and those submitted as carbapenem-susceptible. b, Pie charts representing the proportion of isolates submitted as carbapenem-non-susceptible from participating hospitals with different resistance mechanisms as in a.
