Popis: | Objectives: To evaluate the impact of high-dose (HD) carbapenem-based combination therapy on clinical outcome in patients with monomicrobial carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-KP) bloodstream-infection (BSI). Methods: Post hoc analysis of all adult patients with CR-KP BSI who were treated with a combination antibiotic regimen, collected over a six-year period in six large Italian teaching hospitals. To control for confounding effects of HD carbapenem combination on 14-day mortality, a multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed. Due to imbalances between patients, a propensity score for receiving HD carbapenem was added to the model. Results: 595 patients with CR-KP BSI were analysed, 77% of isolates showed a carbapenem MIC ≥16 mg/L, 428 (71.9%) received HD carbapenem-based combination therapy. Overall, 127 patients (21.3%) died within 14 days after BSI onset. Multivariate analysis showed the Charlson comorbidity index (HR 1.31, 95%CI 1.20–1.43, P < 0.001), septic shock at BSI onset (HR 3.14, 95%CI 2.19–4.50, P < 0.001), and colistin-resistant strain (HR 1.52, 95%CI 1.02–2.24, P = 0.03) were independently associated with 14-day mortality, whereas admission to surgical ward (HR 0.44, 95%CI 0.25–0.78, P = 0.005) and HD carbapenem use (HR 0.69, 95%CI 0.47–1.00, P = 0.05) were protective factors. When adjusted for the propensity score, HD carbapenem use showed a greater protective effect (HR 0.64, 95%CI 0.43–0.95, P = 0.03). Stratifying the model for carbapenem MIC, the benefit of HD carbapenem was also observed for strains with carbapenem MIC ≥16 mg/L. Conclusions: In patients receiving combination therapy for CR-KP BSI, the use of HD carbapenem seems to be associated with better outcome, even in the presence of high-level carbapenem resistance. |
