Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is a global public health threat. In this study, we employed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to determine the genomic epidemiology of a longitudinal collection of clinical CRKP isolates recovered from a large public acute care hospital in Singapore. Phylogenetic analyses, a characterization of resistance and virulence determinants, and plasmid profiling were performed for 575 unique CRKP isolates collected between 2009 and 2020. The phylogenetic analyses identified the presence of global high-risk clones among the CRKP population (clonal group [CG] 14/15, CG17/20, CG147, CG258, and sequence type [ST] 231), and these clones constituted 50% of the isolates. Carbapenemase production was common (n = 497, 86.4%), and KPC was the predominant carbapenemase (n = 235, 40.9%), followed by OXA-48-like (n = 128, 22.3%) and NDM (n = 93, 16.2%). Hypervirulence was detected in 59 (10.3%) isolates and was most common in the ST231 carbapenemase-producing isolates (21/59, 35.6%). Carbapenemase genes were associated with diverse plasmid replicons; however, there was an association of blaOXA-181/232 with ColKP3 plasmids. This study presents the complex and diverse epidemiology of the CRKP strains circulating in Singapore. Our study highlights the utility of WGS-based genomic surveillance in tracking the population dynamics of CRKP. IMPORTANCE In this study, we characterized carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates collected over a 12-year period in the largest public acute-care hospital in Singapore using whole-genome sequencing. The results of this study demonstrate significant genomic diversity with the presence of well-known epidemic, multidrug-resistant clones amid a diverse pool of nonepidemic lineages. Genomic surveillance involving comprehensive resistance, virulence, and plasmid gene content profiling provided critical information for antimicrobial resistance monitoring and highlighted future surveillance priorities, such as the emergence of ST231 K. pneumoniae strains bearing multidrug resistance, virulence elements, and the potential plasmid-mediated transmission of the blaOXA-48-like gene. The findings here also reinforce the necessity of unique infection control and prevention strategies that take the genomic diversity of local circulating strains into consideration.
