ABSTRACT
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii bacteremia (CRAB-B) is a fatal infectious complication of liver transplantation (LT). This study investigated the incidence, effects, and risk factors associated with CRAB-B during the early post-LT period. Among 1051 eligible LT recipients, 29 patients experienced CRAB-B within 30 days of LT with a cumulative incidence of 2.7%. In the patients with CRAB-B (n = 29) and matched controls (n = 145) by nested-case control design, the cumulative incidence of death on days 5, 10, and 30 from the index date was 58.6%, 65.5%, and 65.5%, and 2.1%, 2.8%, and 4.2%, respectively (p < .001). Pre-transplant MELD (OR 1.11, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.04-1.19, p = .002), severe encephalopathy (OR 4.62, 95% CI 1.24-18.61, p = .025), donor body mass index (OR .57, 95% CI .41-.75, p < .001), and reoperation (OR 6.40, 95% CI 1.19-36.82, p = .032) were independent risk factors for 30-day CRAB-B. CRAB-B showed extremely high mortality within 30 days after LT, especially within 5 days after its occurrence. Therefore, assessment of risk factors and early detection of CRAB, followed by proper treatment, are necessary to control CRAB-B after LT.
