The distribution of carbapenemases in Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) has recently undergone a change in our region. According to the Colombian National Institute of Health, there is an increasing prevalence of NDM and NDM-KPC co-producing strains. We carried-out an ambispective cohort study of adult inpatients from Hospital Universitario San Ignacio (2021–2023), infected or colonized with CRE, in which carbapenemases immunochromatographic assay was performed. Out of the 150 patients included in the study, 71.3 % presented with an infection, and carbapenemases were detected in 92.7 % of these cases. Among them, KPC predominated (54 %), while 16.7 % demonstrated enzyme coproductions, mainly KPC-NDM. CRE infected patients had an 18.7 % 30-days mortality, but we could not demonstrate an association between type of carbapenemase and mortality rate (p = 0.82). Logistic regression analysis suggested that ICU admission was independently correlated to fatality (OR 5.08; CI 1.68–16.01). NDM and KPC-NDM presence in CRE poses a public health threat and a therapeutic challenge, with unknown mortality differences according to the carbapenemases pattern. Nevertheless, there was not an association between enzyme type and mortality. |
