Fosfomycin (FOS) is gaining increasing importance as part of combination therapy for the treatment of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) and KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC-Kp), thanks to its in vitro synergism with several antibiotics, high tissue distribution and good tolerability. We analyzed the effect on 30-day survival of FOS-containing regimens compared to non-FOS-containing regimens in critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit with CRAB or KPC-Kp infections. Secondary objectives were to evaluate clinical cure and microbiologic eradication in the FOS vs. the NO-FOS group.
This was a monocentric retrospective observational study including SARS-Cov2-negative critically ill patients with KPC-Kp or CRAB infection treated with combination antibiotic therapy with or without FOS for ≥48 h (FOS vs. NO-FOS groups, respectively). The primary outcome was 30-day mortality; secondary outcomes were clinical cure and microbiological eradication.
Of the 78 patients analyzed, 26 (33.3%) were men, with a median (IQR) age and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) of 67 years (53-74) and 4 (2-5), respectively. Septic shock was present in 18 patients (23.1%); 37 (47.4%) were receiving FOS, 41 (52.6%) were not receiving FOS; CRAB and KPC-Kp were isolated in 44 (56.4%) and 34 (43.6%) of patients, respectivley. Compared to NO-FOS, patients receiving FOS had a higher clinical cure (89.2% vs. 65.9%, P = 0.017), early (<72 h) improvement (78.4% vs. 52.2%, P = 0.018), microbiological eradication (87.5% vs 62.2%, P = 0.027), and lower 7-, 14- and 30-day mortality (0% vs. 4.6%, P =0.027; 2.7% vs 22%, P = 0.016; and 13.5% vs. 34.2%, P = 0.039, respectively). This effect was particularly evident for infections sustained by KPC-Kp. On multivariable analysis, receiving FOS was independently associated with survival (hazard ratio = 0.29, 95% CI = 0.09-0.93, P = 0.038), confirmed after IPTW (HR = 0.501 95% CI = 0.25-0.98 P = 0.042).
FOS-containing regimens exhibited a higher clinical cure, higher microbiological eradication and reduced mortality compared with regimens not containing FOS in critically ill patients with CRAB and KPC-Kp infections.
由于磷霉素(FOS)与多种抗生素具有体外协同作用、组织分布广泛且耐受性良好,它在耐碳青霉烯鲍曼不动杆菌(CRAB)和产肺炎克雷伯菌碳青霉烯酶肺炎克雷伯菌(KPC-Kp)的联合治疗中发挥着越来越重要的作用。我们分析了在重症监护病房收治的患有CRAB或KPC-Kp感染的重症患者中,含FOS方案与不含FOS方案对30天生存率的影响。次要目标是评估FOS组与非FOS组的临床治愈情况和微生物清除情况。
这是一项单中心回顾性观察研究,纳入了SARS-CoV2阴性的重症患者,这些患者患有KPC-Kp或CRAB感染,接受含或不含FOS的联合抗生素治疗≥48小时(分别为FOS组和非FOS组)。主要结局是30天死亡率;次要结局是临床治愈和微生物清除。
在分析的78例患者中,26例(33.3%)为男性,年龄中位数(IQR)为67岁(53 - 74岁),查尔森合并症指数(CCI)中位数为4(2 - 5)。18例患者(23.1%)出现感染性休克;37例(47.4%)接受FOS治疗,41例(52.6%)未接受FOS治疗;分别在44例(56.4%)和34例(43.6%)患者中分离出CRAB和KPC-Kp。与非FOS组相比,接受FOS治疗的患者临床治愈率更高(89.2%对65.9%,P = 0.017),早期(<72小时)改善率更高(78.4%对52.2%,P = 0.018),微生物清除率更高(87.5%对62.2%,P = 0.027),7天、14天和30天死亡率更低(0%对4.6%,P = 0.027;2.7%对22%,P = 0.016;13.5%对34.2%,P = 0.039)。这种效应在KPC-Kp引起的感染中尤为明显。多变量分析显示,接受FOS治疗与生存独立相关(风险比 = 0.29,95%置信区间 = 0.09 - 0.93,P = 0.038),逆概率加权法(IPTW)后得到确认(HR = 0.501,95%置信区间 = 0.25 - 0.98,P = 0.042)。
在患有CRAB和KPC-Kp感染的重症患者中,与不含FOS的方案相比,含FOS的方案具有更高的临床治愈率、更高的微生物清除率和更低的死亡率。
