Background: The emergence of carbapenemase producing Acinetobacter baumannii (CPAB) is increasingly reported nowadays and constitutes a major problem to the intensive care unit (ICU) patients with remarkable ability to acquire antibiotic resistance. The aim of this study was to determine the antibiotic resistance patterns, presence of carbapanemase genes of A. baumannii isolated from various clinical specimens, Khartoum State-Sudan. Methods: one hundredof Gram-negative coccobacilli isolates were collected from ICU patients admitted to RoyalCare International Hospital and the National Ribbat Hospital. All the samples were processed using conventional microbiological and molecular methods for A. baumanii identification. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by dis diffusion techn..
