Background. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the major concerns among bacterial diseases even when it shows a wild-type susceptibility pattern. In 2020, EUCAST reconsidered antibiogram interpretation shifting “I” from “intermediate” to “sensible, increased exposure” with possible significant impact on antibiotic prescription. The aim of this study was to evaluate mortality in patients with P. aeruginosa bloodstream infections treated with antipseudomonal penicillins or cephalosporins vs. carbapenems and ceftazidime/avibactam. Methods. This is a retrospective observational study. All the patients with a bloodstream infection due to P. aeruginosa admitted to our hospital were enrolled. Exclusion criteria were as follows: extremely critical conditions, age p > 0.1). In group A, in-hospital BSI-related mortality was 23.2% (13/56), while it was 14.3% (3/21) in group B (p > 0.1). After multivariate analysis, only the PITT score represented a risk factor for BSI-related mortality (OR 2.917, 95% CI 1.381–6.163). Conclusions. Both all-cause and BSI-related mortality were comparable between the two groups. Treatment with carbapenem or ceftazidime/avibactam did not represent a protective factor for mortality in wild-type P. aeruginosa BSI. |
