found a high prevalence of ESBL producers, but no CPE. In conclusion, we report two temporally and geographically linked patients with community-onset urinary tract infection caused by the same OXA-48-producing E. coli clone. The association between OXA-48 and Cambodia in NZ suggests the Cambodian patient may have acquired the organism during recent travel and indirectly transmitted to the second patient via unknown community transmission pathways. It is possible that OXA-48-positive CPE are under-recognized in NZ due to the challenges of laboratory detection. Screening with adequate selective media for CPE is highly recommended. The forthcoming national response plan to CPE in NZ has potential to help address some of these issues.
