We describe the clinical outcome of 17 patients with secondary Acinetobacter bacteremia whose isolates had a tigecycline MIC of ≤2 mg/liter and who received tigecycline within 2 days of bacteremia onset. The 14-day mortality rate of the tigecycline cohort was 41.2% (7/17), which was significantly higher than that of those receiving other appropriate antimicrobial agents (13.8%, 9/65; P = 0.018). However, the percentages of end-stage renal disease and congestive heart failure were higher in the tigecycline cohort. The efficacy of tigecycline was contingent upon the illness severity and bacterial species. Tigecycline should be applied cautiously for treatment of Acinetobacter bacteremia.
我们描述了17例继发性不动杆菌血症患者的临床结局,这些患者的分离株对替加环素的最低抑菌浓度(MIC)≤2mg/L,且在菌血症发作后2天内接受了替加环素治疗。替加环素组的14天死亡率为41.2%(7/17),显著高于接受其他合适抗菌药物治疗的患者(13.8%,9/65;P = 0.018)。然而,替加环素组终末期肾病和充血性心力衰竭的比例更高。替加环素的疗效取决于疾病严重程度和细菌种类。治疗不动杆菌血症时应谨慎使用替加环素。
