To describe survival following nosocomial bloodstream infections and quantify excess mortality associated with positive blood culture.
Multicenter cohort study of premature infants.
First blood culture was negative for 4648/5497 (78%) of the neonates--390/4648 (8%) died prior to discharge. Mortality prior to discharge was 19% in the 161 infants with Gram-negative rod (GNR) bacteremia, 8% in the 854 neonates with coagulase negative staphylococcus (CONS), 6% in the 169 infants infected with other Gram-positive bacteria (GP-o), and 26% in the 115 neonates with candidemia. The excess 7-day mortality was 0% for Gram-positive organisms and 83% for GNR bacteremia and candidemia. Using negative blood culture as referent, GNR [hazard ratio (HR)=2.61] and candidemia (HR=2.27) were associated with increased mortality; CONS (HR=1.08) and GP-o (HR=0.97) were not.
Nosocomial GNR bacteremia and candidemia were associated with increased mortality but Gram-positive bacteremia was not.
描述医院获得性血流感染后的生存率,并量化血培养阳性相关的额外死亡率。
对早产儿进行的多中心队列研究。
4648/5497(78%)的新生儿首次血培养结果为阴性,其中390/4648(8%)在出院前死亡。161例革兰氏阴性杆菌(GNR)菌血症婴儿的出院前死亡率为19%,854例凝固酶阴性葡萄球菌(CONS)感染新生儿的出院前死亡率为8%,169例感染其他革兰氏阳性菌(GP-o)的婴儿出院前死亡率为6%,115例念珠菌血症新生儿的出院前死亡率为26%。革兰氏阳性菌的7天额外死亡率为0%,GNR菌血症和念珠菌血症的7天额外死亡率为83%。以血培养阴性为对照,GNR(风险比[HR]=2.61)和念珠菌血症(HR=2.27)与死亡率增加相关;CONS(HR=1.08)和GP-o(HR=0.97)则不然。
医院获得性GNR菌血症和念珠菌血症与死亡率增加相关,但革兰氏阳性菌血症并非如此。
