Abstrakt: Carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAb) is categorised by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a pathogen of critical concern. However, little is known about CRAbtransmission within the Oceania region. This study addresses this knowledge gap by using molecular epidemiology to characterise the phylogenetic relationships of CRAbisolated in hospitals in Fiji, Samoa, and other countries within the Oceania region including Australia and New Zealand, and India from South Asia.
