We analyse the effectiveness of short courses of adequate treatment in patients with episodes of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales bloodstream-infections (CPE-BSI).
Patients with first monomicrobial CPE-BSI episodes who received ≥72 h of appropriate treatment from 2014-2022 were selected. Detection of CPE was established on the basis of phenotypic antibiogram and confirmation by PCR and/or immunochromatographic methods. Patients were classified in short treatment group (STG) those who received 3-10 days of appropriate treatment, and long treatment (LTG) those receiving >10 days. Unfavourable outcome consisted in a composite of global 30-day mortality and/or persistent bacteremia and/or recurrent bacteremia. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) analysis was performed to compare the outcome between the two study groups.
We included 105 CPE-BSI episodes: 99 were caused by OXA-48-like, 4 VIM and 2 KPC carbapenemases. Thirty-nine patients (37.1%) were included in the STG and 66 (62.9%) in LTG. The STG group presented frequent treatment with ceftazidime-avibactam (43.6% vs. 24.2%, P = 0.03) and lower in-hospital stay (21 days vs. 32 days, P = 0.02). Overall, 28 patients (26.7%) presented unfavourable outcome: IPTW analysis showed no differences in the outcome between STG to LTG groups (24.2% vs. 30.8%, weighted-risk difference 6.6%, P = 0.44). Patients with unfavourable outcome presented more frequently source other than urinary-biliary (46.4% vs. 23.4%, P = 0.02), received less frequently ceftazidime-avibactam (14.3% vs. 37.7%, P = 0.02) and presented frequently with absence of source control when indicated (28.6% vs. 13.0%, P = 0.06).
Short treatment durations for CPE-BSI episodes may be effective, as long as they are appropriate and source control is performed.
我们分析了碳青霉烯酶-producing Enterobacterales 血流感染(CPE-BSI)患者接受短疗程充分治疗的效果。
选择 2014 年至 2022 年期间首次发生单一致病菌 CPE-BSI 且接受了≥72 小时适当治疗的患者。根据表型抗生素谱和 PCR 和/或免疫层析方法确认检测到 CPE。将接受 3-10 天适当治疗的患者分为短疗程治疗组(STG),将接受>10 天治疗的患者分为长疗程治疗组(LTG)。不良结局包括 30 天总死亡率和/或持续菌血症和/或复发性菌血症的复合指标。采用逆概率治疗加权(IPTW)分析比较两组患者的结局。
共纳入 105 例 CPE-BSI 感染患者:99 例由 OXA-48 样、4 例 VIM 和 2 例 KPC 碳青霉烯酶引起。39 例(37.1%)患者被纳入 STG,66 例(62.9%)患者被纳入 LTG。STG 组经常使用头孢他啶-阿维巴坦(43.6% vs. 24.2%,P=0.03),住院时间更短(21 天 vs. 32 天,P=0.02)。总的来说,28 例患者(26.7%)出现不良结局:IPTW 分析显示 STG 和 LTG 组的结局无差异(24.2% vs. 30.8%,加权风险差异 6.6%,P=0.44)。不良结局患者的感染源更常见于非尿-胆源(46.4% vs. 23.4%,P=0.02),较少使用头孢他啶-阿维巴坦(14.3% vs. 37.7%,P=0.02),并且在需要时更常出现未控制感染源(28.6% vs. 13.0%,P=0.06)。
只要适当且控制了感染源,CPE-BSI 感染的短疗程治疗可能是有效的。
