ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
In recent decades, the incidence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extended-spectrum ß-lactamase (ESBL) gram-negative (GN) bacteria has increased progressively among lung transplantation (LT) recipients. A prompt diagnosis, prevention, and management of these pathogens remain the cornerstone for successful organ transplantation. RESEARCH QUESTION What are the incidence of MDR and ESBL GN bacteria within the first 30 days after LT and related risk of in-hospital mortality? What are the potential clinical predictors of isolation of MDR and ESBL GN bacteria? STUDY DESIGN ANDMETHODS:
All consecutive LT recipients admitted to the ICU of the University Hospital of Padua (February 2016-December 2021) were screened retrospectively. Only adult patients undergoing the first bilateral LT and not requiring invasive mechanical ventilation, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, or both before surgery were included. MDR and ESBL GN bacteria were identified using in vitro susceptibility tests and were isolated from the respiratory tract, blood, urine, rectal swab, or surgical wound or drainage according to a routine protocol.RESULTS:
One hundred fifty-three LT recipients were screened, and 132 were considered for analysis. Median age was 52 years (interquartile range, 41-60 years) and 46 patients (35%) were women. MDR and ESBL GN bacteria were identified in 45 patients (34%), and 60% of patients demonstrated clinically relevant infection. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n = 22 [49%]) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (n = 17 [38%]) were frequently isolated after LT from the respiratory tract (n = 21 [47%]) and multiple sites (n = 18 [40%]). Previous recipient-related colonization (hazard ratio [HR], 2.48 [95% CI, 1.04-5.90]; P = .04) and empirical exposure to broad-spectrum antibiotics (HR, 6.94 [95% CI, 2.93-16.46]; P < .01) were independent predictors of isolation of MDR and ESBL GN bacteria. In-hospital mortality of the MDR and ESBL group was 27% (HR, 6.38 [95% CI, 1.98-20.63]; P < .01).INTERPRETATION:
The incidence of MDR and ESBL GN bacteria after LT was 34%, and in-hospital mortality was six times greater. Previous recipient-related colonization and empirical exposure to broad-spectrum antibiotics were clinical predictors of isolation of MDR and ESBL GN bacteria.Palavras-chave
