The global transmission of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) poses a significant and grave threat to human health. To investigate the potential relationship between hospital sewage and the transmission of CRAB within healthcare facilities, isolates of Acinetobacter spp. obtained from untreated hospital sewage samples were subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility tests, genome sequencing, and bioinformatic and phylogenetic tree analysis, and that data were matched with those of the clinical isolates. Among the 70 Acinetobacter spp. sewage isolates tested, A. baumannii was the most prevalent and detectable in 5 hospitals, followed by A. nosocomialis and A. gerneri. Worryingly, 57.14 % (40/70) of the isolates were MDR, with 25.71 % (18/70) being resistant to carbapenem. When utilizing the Pasteur scheme, ST2 was the predominant type among these CRAB isolates, with Tn2006 (ΔISAba1-blaOXA-23-ATPase-yeeB-yeeA-ΔISAba1) and Tn2009 (ΔISAba1-blaOXA-23-ATPase-hp-parA-yeeC-hp-yeeB-ΔISAba1) being the key mobile genetic elements that encode carbapenem resistance. Seven A. gerneri isolates which harbored Tn2008 (ISAba1-blaOXA-23 -ATPase) and the blaPER-1 gene were also identified. Besides, an A. soil isolate was found to exhibit high-level of meropenem resistance (MIC ≥128 mg/L) and harbor a blaNDM-1 gene located in a core genetic structure of ISAba125-blaNDM-1-ble-trpF-dsbC-cutA. To investigate the genetic relatedness between isolates recovered from hospital sewage and those collected from ICUs, a phylogenetic tree was constructed for 242 clinical isolates and 9 sewage isolates. The results revealed the presence of two evolutionary clades, each containing isolates from both ICU and sewage water, suggesting that CRAB isolates in untreated sewage water were also the transmission clones or closely related evolutionary isolates recoverable in hospital settings. Findings in this work confirm that hospital sewage is a potential reservoir of CRAB.
