ABSTRACT
Background:
Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) is a new cephalosporin/ß-lactamase inhibitor combination that received clinical approval in China in 2019. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of CAZ-AVI in the treatment of Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) infection in a hospital, and differences in efficacy among various infection sites and between monotherapy and combination therapy, providing valuable insights for its further application.Methods:
Patients who used CAZ-AVI between January 2019 and April 2023 were identified through the hospital information system. Demographic information, details of the infection site, KP strain's drug sensitivity report, treatment duration, combination therapies, adverse drug reactions (ADR), and 28-day survival were recorded. Clinical and microbiological efficacies were analyzed using SPSS 23.0 software to compare different infection sites and combination therapies.Results:
The overall effective clinical response (CR) rate of CAZ-AVI against KP infection was 62.13%, with a favorable microbial response (MR) rate was 65.68% and a 28-day survival rate was 63.91%. No significant difference occurred in effective CR and 28-day survival rate among different infection sites (P = 0.709 and 0.862, respectively). The favorable MR rate for abdominal infections was slightly lower than that for other sites of infection (P = 0.021). No significant differences in effective CR, favorable MR, and 28-day survival between monotherapy and combination therapy were present (P values were 0.649, 0.123, and 0.280, respectively). The incidence of ADR was 1.78%, including increased creatinine, elevated transaminase, hematuria, and thrombocytopenia.Conclusion:
CAZ-AVI demonstrates good clinical efficacy and safety in the treatment of KP infections. The clinical efficacy of CAZ-AVI was similar across different infection sites, and combination therapy did not show an advantage over monotherapy. Further studies are warranted. It should be noted that CAZ-AVI may induce thrombocytopenia and hematuria.
