Background The emergence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli is of major concern due to the high propensity of spread of this species and scarce treatment options. Herein, we examined the occurrence and spread of carbapenem-resistant E coli based on the carbapenem-resistant and/or colistin-resistant Enterobacterales (CCRE) survey performed across European countries in 2019. Methods We analysed epidemiological, microbiological, and whole-genome sequencing data of 548 E coli isolates from individual patients from 156 hospitals in 32 European countries over 6 months in 2019. These hospitals collected the first ten successive isolates of carbapenem-resistant or carbapenem-susceptible increased exposure (carbapenem-R/I) Klebsiella pneumoniae species complex or E coli, and carbapenem-susceptible (carbapenem-S) comparator isolates of the same species. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed for 19 antimicrobial agents. Whole-genome sequencing was performed centrally using Illumina technology. Isolates from the CCRE survey were compared with those from the European Survey of Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae (EuSCAPE) study. Findings Of the 548 E coli isolates, 211 (38·5%) were carbapenem-resistant or susceptible, increased exposure (carbapenem-R/I), and 337 (61·5%) were carbapenem-susceptible (carbapenem-S). Five sequence types (STs) accounted for 96 (45·5%) of 211 carbapenem-R/I isolates: ST131 (27), ST410 (20), ST38 (19), ST167 (16), and ST648 (14). Ca...
