ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria (CRGNB) present a considerable global threat due to their challenging treatment and increased mortality rates, with bloodstream infection (BSI) having the highest mortality rate. Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing renal replacement therapy (RRT) face an increased risk of BSI. Limited data are available regarding the prognosis and treatment outcomes of CRGNB-BSI in patients with ESRD in intensive care units (ICUs).METHODS:
This multi-center retrospective observational study included a total of 149 ICU patients with ESRD and CRGNB-BSI in Taiwan from January 2015 to December 2019. Clinical and microbiological outcomes were assessed, and multivariable regression analysis was used to evaluate the independent risk factors for day-28 mortality and the impact of antimicrobial therapy regimen on treatment outcomes.RESULTS:
Among the 149 patients, a total of 127 patients (85.2%) acquired BSI in the ICU, with catheter-related infections (47.7%) and pneumonia (32.2%) being the most common etiologies. Acinetobacter baumannii (49.0%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (31.5%) were the most frequently isolated pathogens. The day-28 mortality rate from BSI onset was 52.3%, and in-hospital mortality was 73.2%, with survivors experiencing prolonged hospital stays. A higher Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score (adjusted hazards ratio [aHR], 1.25; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.17-1.35) and shock status (aHR, 2.12; 95% CI 1.14-3.94) independently predicted day-28 mortality. Colistin-based therapy reduced day-28 mortality in patients with shock, a SOFA score of ≥ 13, and Acinetobacter baumannii-related BSI.CONCLUSIONS:
CRGNB-BSI led to high mortality in critically ill patients with ESRD. Day-28 mortality was independently predicted by a higher SOFA score and shock status. In patients with higher disease severity and Acinetobacter baumannii-related BSI, colistin-based therapy improved treatment outcomes.
