Objectives: Bloodstream infections (BSIs) caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) have become a worldwide public health threat, and beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations (BLBLIs) are considered as one reliable carbapenem-sparing antibiotic. However, it is still controversial whether BLBLIs are truly noninferior to carbapenems. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to compare the efficacy of BLBLIs with carbapenems for ESBL-PE BSIs. Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase was conducted until December 2021 to enroll studies comparing BLBLIs with carbapenems for ESBL-PE BSIs. A subgroup analysis was performed based on the choice of therapy (empirical, definitive, and mixed therapy). The protocol was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (#CRD42022316011). Results: A total of 2786 patients from one randomized clinical trial and 25 cohorts were included. There was no statistically significant difference between BLBLIs and carbapenems groups in therapeutical response (odds ratio [OR] = 1.19, P = 0.45) and mortality (OR = 1.06, P = 0.68). Furthermore, although the statistical difference was also not found in the subgroup analysis, BLBLIs performed better in definitive therapy than empirical therapy than carbapenems, with a numerically higher therapeutical response (OR = 1.42 vs 0.89) and a mildly lower mortality (OR = 0.85 vs 1.14). Conclusion: BLBLIs were noninferior to carbapenems for ESBL-PE BSIs, especially in definitive therapy. BLBLIs may be a valid alternative to spare the use of carbapenems. |
