RESUMO
BACKGROUND: We implemented an opt-out clinic-based intervention pairing syphilis tests with routine human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) viral load testing. The primary objective was to determine the degree to which this intervention increased the detection of early syphilis. METHODS: The Enhanced Syphilis Screening Among HIV-Positive Men (ESSAHM) Trial was a stepped wedge cluster-randomized controlled trial involving 4 urban HIV clinics in Ontario, Canada, from 2015 to 2017. The population was HIV-positive adult males. The intervention was standing orders for syphilis serological testing with viral loads, and control was usual practice. We obtained test results via linkage with the centralized provincial laboratory and defined cases using a standardized clinical worksheet and medical record review. We employed a generalized linear mixed model with a logit link to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of the intervention. RESULTS: A total of 3895 men were followed over 7471 person-years. The mean number of syphilis tests increased from 0.53 to 2.02 tests per person per year. There were 217 new diagnoses of syphilis (control, 81; intervention, 136), for which 147 (68%) were cases of early syphilis (control, 61 [75%]; intervention, 86 [63%]). The annualized proportion with newly detected early syphilis increased from 0.009 to 0.032 with implementation of the intervention; the corresponding time-adjusted OR was 1.25 (95% CI, .71-2.20). CONCLUSIONS: The implementation of standing orders for syphilis testing with HIV viral loads was feasible and increased testing, yet produced less-than-expected increases in case detection compared to past uncontrolled pre-post trials.

Recognizing emergency department overcrowding during the COVID-19 pandemic, a pathway to facilitate direct admissions for outpatients with worsening COVID-19 infection was created using the COVID-19 expansion to outpatients (COVIDEO) virtual care program. Outpatients appropriate for direct admission had oxygen saturations consistently <92% without severe respiratory distress. Pulse oximeters were proactively delivered to high-risk patients, and patients contacted the program in the event of worsening symptoms or desaturation persistently <92%. Over a 15-month period, 9,116 outpatients were managed by the program, 164 of whom were hospitalized, and 83 of those hospitalized (50.6%) were directly admitted through this pathway. Of those directly admitted, 10 (12.0%) patients required ICU admission, occurring a median of 4 days from hospital admission. The mortality rate among directly admitted patients was 3.6% (3/83). Implementation of a virtual care program to facilitate direct admissions in outpatients with COVID-19 created a safe, efficient, and patient-centered pathway of care.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Syphilis infections have been on the rise, affecting men living with HIV in urban centres disproportionately. Since individuals in HIV care undergo routine blood testing, HIV clinics provide practical opportunities to conduct regular and frequent syphilis testing. Following the implementation of a routine syphilis testing intervention in HIV outpatient clinics, we conducted a qualitative process evaluation of patient experiences to measure patient acceptability, barriers to implementation, and facilitators of successful uptake. METHODS: Upon completion of the trial, which took place at four HIV outpatient clinics in Toronto and Ottawa, Canada, we recruited male patients attending these clinics from November 2017 to April 2018. Interviews were conducted on-site and were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. All participants provided written informed consent. Interview data were analyzed using grounded theory, assessing qualitative modulators of effective uptake of routinised syphilis testing. RESULTS: A total of 21 male patients were interviewed. Overall, interviewees found the clinical intervention acceptable, endorsing the practice of routinising syphilis testing alongside regular viral load bloodwork. Some men preferred, based on their self-assessment of syphilis risk, to opt out of testing; we considered this as a potential barrier to uptake of population-wide routinised syphilis testing. Interviewees also identified multiple facilitators of successful uptake, including the de-stigmatising of STI testing as a consequence of the universal nature of routinised testing. Participants recommended a routinised syphilis screening intervention to give patients peace of mind surrounding their sexual health. Participants identified HIV care clinics as comfortable and efficient locations to offer testing. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, most men were in support of implementing routinised syphilis testing as part of standard HIV care. From the patient perspective, HIV care clinics are convenient places to be tested for syphilis, and the routine approach was viewed to have a de-stigmatisng effect on syphilis testing. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02019043; registered December 23, 2013.

BACKGROUND: Reported allergy to beta-lactam antibiotics is common and often leads to unnecessary avoidance in patients who could tolerate these antibiotics. We prospectively evaluated the impact of these reported allergies on clinical outcomes. METHODS: We conducted a trainee-led prospective cohort study to determine the burden and clinical impact of reported beta-lactam allergy on patients seen by infectious diseases consultation services at 3 academic hospitals. The primary outcome was a composite measure of readmission for the same infection, acute kidney injury, Clostridium difficile infection, or drug-related adverse reactions requiring discontinuation. Predictors of interest were history of beta-lactam allergy and receipt of preferred beta-lactam therapy. RESULTS: Among 507 patients, 95 (19%) reported beta-lactam allergy; preferred therapy was a beta-lactam in 72 (76%). When beta-lactam therapy was preferred, 25 (35%) did not receive preferred therapy due to their report of allergy even though 13 (52%) reported non-severe prior reactions. After adjustment for confounders, patients who did not receive preferred beta-lactam therapy were at greater risk of adverse events (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 3.1; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.28-7.89) compared with those without reported allergy. In contrast, patients who received preferred beta-lactam therapy had a similar risk of adverse events compared with patients not reporting allergy (aOR, 1.33; 95% CI, .62-2.87). CONCLUSIONS: Avoidance of preferred beta-lactam therapy in patients who report allergy is associated with an increased risk of adverse events. Development of inpatient programs aimed at accurately identifying beta-lactam allergies to safely promote beta-lactam administration among these patients is warranted.

Introduction: The life expectancy of people living with HIV receiving effective combination antiretroviral therapy is approaching that of the general population and non AIDS-defining age-related comorbidities are becoming of greater concern. In order to support healthy aging of this population, we set out to explore the association between multimorbidity (defined as presence of 2 or more non AIDS-defining comorbidities) and quality of life (QoL). Methods: We performed a cross-sectional analysis using data from the Correlates of Healthy Aging in Geriatric HIV (CHANGE HIV) study, a Canadian cohort of people living with HIV age 65 years and older. Study participants completed two QoL modules, the general QoL and health related QoL (HR-QoL). Results: 433 participants were included in the analysis with a median age of 69 years (interquartile range, IQR 67-72). The median number of comorbidities among study participants was 3 (IQR 2-4), with 78% meeting the definition of multimorbidity. General QoL scores (median 66, IQR 58-76) were lower than HR-QoL scores (median 71, IQR 61-83) and were not associated with multimorbidity after adjusting for age, sex, relationship status, household income, exercise, tobacco smoking history, malnutrition, time since HIV diagnosis, and HIV-related stigma. In contrast, multimorbidity was associated with lower HR-QoL (adjusted ß = -4.57, 95% CI -8.86, -0.28) after accounting for the same variables. Several social vulnerabilities (not having a partner, low household income), health behaviours (lower engagement in exercise, smoking), and HIV-related factors (HIV stigma, longer time since HIV diagnosis) were also associated with lower QoL. Discussion: Overall, our study demonstrated a high burden of multimorbidity among older adults living with HIV in Canada, which has a negative impact on HR-QoL. Interventions aimed at preventing and managing non-AIDS-defining comorbidities should be assessed in people living with HIV to determine whether this can improve their HR-QoL.
RESUMO
Background: Delays in COVID-19 testing may increase the risk of secondary household and community transmission. Little is known about what patient characteristics and symptom profiles are associated with delays in test seeking. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of all symptomatic patients diagnosed with COVID-19 and assessed in a COVID Expansion to Outpatients (COVIDEO) virtual care program between March 2020 and June 2021. The primary outcome was later test seeking more than 3 days from symptom onset. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine predictors of later testing including patient characteristics and symptoms (30 individual symptoms or 7 symptom clusters). Results: Of 5,363 COVIDEO patients, 4,607 were eligible and 2,155/4,607 (46.8%) underwent later testing. Older age was associated with increased odds of late testing (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.007/year; 95% CI 1.00 to 1.01), as was history of recent travel (aOR 1.4; 95% CI 1.01 to 1.95). Health care workers had lower odds of late testing (aOR 0.50; 95% CI 0.39 to 0.62). Late testing was associated with symptoms in the cardiorespiratory (aOR 1.2; 95% CI 1.05, 1.36), gastrointestinal (aOR = 1.2; 95% CI 1.04, 1.4), neurological (aOR 1.1; 95% CI 1.003, 1.3) and psychiatric (aOR 1.3; 95% CI 1.1, 1.5) symptom clusters. Among individual symptoms, dyspnea, anosmia, dysgeusia, sputum, and anorexia were associated with late testing; pharyngitis, myalgia, and headache were associated with early testing. Conclusion: Certain patient characteristics and symptoms are associated with later testing, and warrant further efforts to encourage earlier testing to minimize transmission.
Historique: Les retards à effectuer les tests de dépistage de la COVID-19 peuvent accroître le risque de transmission secondaire dans la famille et la communauté. On ne sait pas vraiment quels sont les caractéristiques des patients et leurs profils de symptômes associés aux retards à se faire dépister. Méthodologie: Les chercheurs ont réalisé une étude de cohorte auprès de tous les patients symptomatiques ayant obtenu un diagnostic de COVID-19 évalués dans le cadre du programme de soins virtuels COVID Expansion to Outpatients (COVIDEO, ou expansion de la COVID aux patients ambulatoires) entre mars 2020 et juin 2021. Le résultat primaire était une demande de dépistage plus de trois jours après l'apparition des symptômes. Les chercheurs ont utilisé la régression logistique multivariable pour examiner les prédicteurs d'un dépistage tardif, y compris les caractéristiques et les symptômes des patients (30 symptômes individuels ou sept grappes de symptômes). Résultats: Des 5 363 patients ayant participé au programme COVIDEO, 4 607 étaient admissibles et 2 155 de ces 4 607 (46,8 %) se sont soumis à un dépistage tardif. Une plus grande probabilité de dépistage tardif était liée à un âge avancé (rapport de cotes corrigé [RCc] 1,007/année, IC à 95 %, 1,00 à 1,01), de même qu'à un voyage récent (RCc = 1,4, IC à 95 %, 1,01 à 1,95). Les travailleurs de la santé étaient moins susceptibles de se faire dépister tardivement (RCc = 0,50, IC à 95 %, 0,39 à 0,62). Le dépistage tardif était associé à des symptômes de la grappe cardiorespiratoire (RCc = 1,2, IC à 95 %, [1,05, 1,36]), gastrointestinale (RCc = 1,2, IC à 95 %, [1,04, 1,4]), neurologique (RCc = 1,1, IC à 95 %, [1,003, 1,3]) et psychiatrique (RCc = 1,3, IC à 95 %, [1,1, 1,5]). Parmi les symptômes individuels, la dyspnée, l'anosmie, la dysgueusie, les expectorations et l'anorexie étaient associées à un dépistage tardif, et la pharyngite, les myalgies et les céphalées, à un dépistage précoce. Conclusion: Certaines caractéristiques des patients et certains symptômes étaient associés à un dépistage tardif, ce qui justifie des efforts supplémentaires pour favoriser un dépistage plus rapide afin de limiter la transmission. Summary: This study of more than 4,000 patients with COVID-19 identified predictors of later test seeking, including older age, recent travel, non-health care worker occupation, cardiorespiratory, gastrointestinal, neurologic and psychiatric symptom clusters, and dyspnea, anosmia, dysgeusia, sputum, and anorexia.
RESUMO
The current standard of care in Canadian obstetrical practice is to offer pregnant women the opportunity for prenatal investigation to diagnose congenital abnormalities. Prenatal amniocentesis is Canada's most commonly practiced invasive procedure for the diagnosis of chromosomal and single gene disorders. The potential risk of intrapartum HIV transmission during amniocentesis raises several ethical concerns and limits the availability of prenatal genetic testing for HIV-positive pregnant women. Complete virological suppression with antiretroviral therapy may alleviate the risk of mother-to-child transmission during amniocentesis and increase accessibility of this important diagnostic tool in the HIV-positive population. The present report describes a case involving a 32-year-old HIV-positive pregnant woman whose plasma viral load was undetectable on antiretroviral therapy; she underwent successful prenatal amniocentesis without transmission of HIV to her infant.
La norme actuelle des soins dans la pratique obstétricale canadienne consiste à offrir aux femmes enceintes la possibilité d'une évaluation prénatale afin de diagnostiquer des anomalies congénitales. L'amniocentèse prénatale est l'intervention invasive la plus pratiquée au Canada pour diagnostiquer des troubles chromosomiques ou monogéniques. Le risque potentiel de transmission intrapartum du VIH pendant l'amniocentèse soulève plusieurs questions éthiques et limite la disponibilité des tests génétiques prénatals chez les femmes enceintes positives au VIH. La suppression virologique totale grâce à l'antirétrovirothérapie pourrait réduire le risque de transmission entre la mère et l'enfant pendant l'amniocentèse et accroître l'accessibilité à cet important outil diagnostique au sein de la population positive au VIH. Le présent rapport décrit le cas d'une femme enceinte de 32 ans positive au VIH sous antivirothérapie et dont la charge virale plasmatique n'était pas décelable. Elle a subi une amniocentèse prénatale sans transmettre le VIH à son nourrisson.
RESUMO
Background: Lachnoanaerobaculum orale is a newly described, obligately anaerobic gram-positive bacillus. The first report of invasive disease caused by L. orale was described in a patient with acute lymphocytic leukemia following systematic chemotherapy. Here we describe another case of L. orale bacteremia in a patient with a hematologic malignancy following chemotherapy-induced neutropenia. Methods: We present a case of a 46-year-old woman with a recent diagnosis of AML who presented to Sunnybrook Health Sciences Center with febrile neutropenia following induction chemotherapy with daunorubicin-cytarabine (3 +7 regimen) with Gemtuzumab and Ozogamycin. Despite being on intravenous pipercillin-tazobactam she remained febrile. Following our clinical assessment and investigations, potential sources of infection included a swollen digit and severe mucositis. Results: One blood culture from admission grew Lachnoanaerobaculum orale in the anaerobic bottle, identified by Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight (MALDI-TOF). The isolate also underwent whole-genome sequencing using methods that have been described previously. Results demonstrated the organism was susceptible to cefoxitin, clindamycin, meropenem, metronidazole, penicillin, and piperacillin-tazobactam. We concluded that the source of this patient's bloodstream infection to be chemotherapy-induced stomatitis. Conclusion: With the increasing use of intensive immunosuppressive regimens and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for patients with hematologic malignancies, there has been an increase in the incidence and detection of bloodstream infections due to anaerobic organisms. This is only the second case report of L. orale bacteremia, highlighting its emerging role as an opportunistic pathogen in immunocompromised patients.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the impact of virtual care in preventing unnecessary healthcare visits for patients with SARS-CoV-2. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective matched cohort study, evaluating the COVID-19 Expansion to Outpatients (COVIDEO) programme involving virtual assessments for all positive patients in the Sunnybrook assessment centre from January 2020 to June 2021, followed by risk-stratified routine follow-up, couriering of oxygen saturation devices, and 24 hour/day direct-to-physician pager for urgent questions. We linked COVIDEO data to province-wide datasets, matching each eligible COVIDEO patient to ≤10 other Ontario SARS-CoV-2 patients on age, sex, neighbourhood, and date. The primary outcome was emergency department (ED) visit, hospitalization or death within 30 days. Multivariable regression accounted for comorbidities, vaccination, and pre-pandemic healthcare utilization. RESULTS: Among 6508 eligible COVIDEO patients, 4763 (73.1%) were matched to ≥1 non-COVIDEO patient. COVIDEO care was protective against the primary composite outcome (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 0.91, 95% CI, 0.82-1.02), with a reduction in ED visits (7.8% vs. 9.6%; aOR 0.79, 95% CI, 0.70-0.89), but increase in hospitalizations (3.8% vs. 2.7%, aOR 1.37, 95% CI, 1.14-1.63) reflecting more direct-to-ward admissions (1.3% vs. 0.2%, p < 0.0001). Results were similar when matched comparators were limited to patients who had not received virtual care elsewhere with a decrease in ED visits (7.8 vs. 8.6%, aOR 0.86, 95% CI, 0.75-0.99) and an increase in hospitalizations (3.7 vs. 2.4%, aOR 1.45, 95% CI, 1.17-1.80). DISCUSSION: An intensive remote care programme can prevent unnecessary ED visits and facilitate direct-to-ward hospitalizations and thereby mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on the healthcare system.

The Correlates of Healthy Aging in Geriatric HIV (CHANGE HIV) study, CTN 314, is the first Canadian cohort of people living with HIV aged 65 years and older. The cohort was established with the purpose of characterizing the multidimensional health status of this population and identifying factors influencing healthy aging. The study builds on the World Health Organization (WHO) Aging and Health conceptual framework, generating a comprehensive profile of health domains (physical, social, mental health, cognitive function, and quality of life), health determinants (biologic, personal, and environmental), and HIV-specific factors that may interact with and influence health in people aging with HIV. The data for the first 353 participants are presented, focusing on sociodemographic factors, comorbidities, coinfections, frailty, cognitive function, loneliness, and resilience using a sex/gender stratified analysis. The cohort thus far is 91% men and the median age is 70 years (range from 65 to 85). Several vulnerabilities were observed, including a high prevalence of comorbidities and frailty. Women especially faced financial insecurity and precarious social structures; a large proportion live alone and only 6% are married or in steady relationships. Identifying strategies to address these vulnerabilities will empower people aging with HIV to optimize their health, quality of life, and independence.

BACKGROUND: The literature indicates that medical students require more comprehensive HIV training. AIM: Medical students at the University of Toronto developed and implemented the preclerkship HIV elective (PHE) with the aim to increase trainee HIV knowledge, address important issues in HIV care, and prepare students to serve affected populations. METHODS: Developed in partnership with the Ontario HIV Treatment Network and in consultation with local AIDS service organizations and the University of Toronto Faculty of Medicine, the PHE was inaugurated in November 2008 as an elective supplement to medical curriculum content. Eighteen second-year medical students participated in the PHE, consisting of lectures, small group sessions, clinical observerships, community placements, reading assignments, and an HIV counseling and testing workshop. Participants completed a self-assessment of HIV knowledge prior to starting and after PHE completion. RESULTS: Self-assessment scores of HIV knowledge among PHE participants significantly increased from 78.1% (pre-PHE) to 90.2% (post-PHE) (p = 0.0016). Common themes from feedback on participant satisfaction included enthusiasm for small group sessions, clinical observerships, community agency placements, and the diversity of topics covered. CONCLUSIONS: Student-run initiatives can supplement medical curriculum content and program feedback may be used to advocate for curriculum changes. Factors influencing success include student leadership and interest, community partnerships, and faculty mentorship.

BACKGROUND: Treatment of infective endocarditis secondary to Pseudomonas aeruginosa can be challenging because of this organism's ability to acquire antimicrobial resistance over time. METHODS: We describe a patient with native aortic valve infective endocarditis due to P. aeruginosa who developed progressive multi-drug resistance while on therapy. The resistance mechanisms were characterized using whole-genome sequencing. RESULTS: We identified two mutations in subsequent isolates (dacB and OprD) that conferred resistance to anti-pseudomonal penicillins, cephalosporins, and carbapenems. The patient was treated with combination high-dose continuous infusion meropenem and ciprofloxacin therapy, in addition to bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement and repair of ventricular septal wall defect. Antibiotics were continued for 6 weeks post-cardiac surgery and the patient remains infection free 18 months post-completion of antibiotic therapy. CONCLUSION: Clinicians should be aware of the ability of P. aeruginosa to acquire resistance mechanisms in response to selective antibiotic pressures in high-inoculum infections such as infective endocarditis. The mutations identified in this case report correlated well with the evolving antimicrobial resistance profile observed.
HISTORIQUE: Il peut être difficile de traiter une endocardite infectieuse causée par un Pseudomonas aeruginosa en raison de la capacité de cet organisme à acquérir une résistance aux antimicrobiens. MÉTHODOLOGIE: Les chercheurs décrivent un patient atteint d'une endocardite infectieuse de la valve aortique d'origine, attribuable à un P. aeruginosa, qui a acquis une multirésistance progressive pendant son traitement. Le mécanisme de résistance était caractérisé par le séquençage du génome entier. RÉSULTATS: Les auteurs ont dépisté deux mutations dans les isolats subséquents (dacB et OprD ), responsables d'une résistance aux pénicillines, aux céphalosporines et aux carbapénèmes antipseudomonaux. Le patient a reçu une polythérapie de perfusion continue de méropénem à forte dose et de ciprofloxacine, en plus du remplacement d'une valve aortique bioprothétique et de la réparation d'une communication interventriculaire. L'antibiothérapie s'est poursuivie six semaines après l'opération, et le patient n'avait pas d'infection 18 mois après la fin de l'antibiothérapie. CONCLUSION: Les cliniciens devraient savoir que le P. aeruginosa peut acquérir des mécanismes de résistance en réponse aux pressions antibiotiques sélectives en cas d'infections comportant un titre élevé d'inoculum comme une endocardite infectieuse. Les mutations constatées dans le présent rapport de cas étaient bien corrélées avec l'évolution du profil de résistance antimicrobienne observé.
