SAMPLE QUESTION

A 72-year-old man develops fever and a new pulmonary infiltrate after 8 days of mechanical ventilation. A lower respiratory specimen grows gram-negative rods that are oxidase negative, ferment glucose, and form large mucoid pink colonies on MacConkey agar. Motility testing is negative. The specimen contains numerous neutrophils.

Which organism best fits these findings?
