BACKGROUND: Carbapenem-resistant METHODS: ASCENSION was a prospective, multicentre, observational study conducted in 14 hospitals from four of five Brazilian regions. FINDINGS: Between August 15, 2022, and August 14, 2023, 1350 isolates (1220 BSI episodes) were included. WPAP accounted for 38.8% (n = 524
  95% Confidence Interval 32.0-46.1) of all isolates, with CRE (19.3%) as the most frequent, followed by CRAB (9.6%), MRSA (4.9%), VRE (2.7%), and CRPA (2.4%). Incidence-density of all and WPAP isolates were 1.91 and 0.77/1000 patients-day, respectively. Carbapenem-resistant INTERPRETATION: A high frequency of WPAP bacteria, particularly CRKP and CRAB, were found in healthcare-associated BSIs in Brazil, posing them as a major public health problem in this country. FUNDING: National Council for Scientific and Technological Development, Brazil.
