The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (MDR-GNB) treated with ceftazidime/avibactam (CAZ/AVI) during the period September 2019 to June 2020 since CAZ/AVI had been marketed in China.
A total of 20 MDR-GNB-infected patients were retrospectively identified using the electronic medical record system in West China Hospital.
The mean age of the 20 patients was 54.5 ± 17.37 years and 14 (70%) were male. Pneumonia (n = 12; 60%), complicated intra-abdominal infection (n = 10; 50%), and bloodstream infection (n = 7; 35%) were the most common infection sources. Klebsiella pneumoniae (55% 18/33) was the predominant pathogen. The 14-day clinical cure rate was 45%. The 14-day and 30-day mortality rates were 25% and 55%, respectively. No significant difference was found in 30-day mortality between treatment with CAZ/AVI monotherapy and combination regimens (P > 0.05). Three patients suffered from adverse drug reactions such as diarrhoea.
No significant difference was found between the effectiveness of CAZ/AVI in the clinical failure and cure groups as salvage treatment of MDR-GNB infection.
本研究旨在调查 2019 年 9 月至 2020 年 6 月 CAZ/AVI 在中国上市以来,使用头孢他啶/阿维巴坦(CAZ/AVI)治疗多重耐药革兰阴性菌(MDR-GNB)感染患者的临床特征和结局。
通过电子病历系统回顾性确定了华西医院 20 例 MDR-GNB 感染患者。
20 例患者的平均年龄为 54.5±17.37 岁,14 例(70%)为男性。肺炎(n=12;60%)、复杂腹腔内感染(n=10;50%)和血流感染(n=7;35%)是最常见的感染源。肺炎克雷伯菌(55%,18/33)是主要病原体。14 天临床治愈率为 45%。14 天和 30 天死亡率分别为 25%和 55%。CAZ/AVI 单药治疗与联合治疗方案在 30 天死亡率方面无显著差异(P>0.05)。3 例患者出现腹泻等药物不良反应。
CAZ/AVI 作为 MDR-GNB 感染的挽救治疗,在临床失败和治愈组的疗效之间无显著差异。
