<p><italic>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</italic> (<italic>P. aeruginosa</italic>) bacteremia causes significant mortality rate due to emergence of multidrug resistant (MDR) nosocomial infections. We report the draft genome sequence of <italic>P. aeruginosa</italic> strain VRFPA09, a human bloodstream isolate, phenotypically proven as MDR strain. Whole genome sequencing on VRFPA09, deciphered betalactamase encoding bla_veb-1 and bla_OXA-10genes and multiple drug resistance, virulence factor encoding genes.</p>.

1. Extended spectrum betalactamases
2. Blood
3. <italic>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</italic>
4. Next generation sequencing
