Prognostic evaluation of Acinetobacter baumannii ventilator-associated pneumonia in COVID-19.
Background: Since the emergence of the pandemic of SARS-CoV-2, a high reported incidence of VAP in COVID-19 sustained by carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) has been observed, but data are scarce to date.
Materials and methods: We retrospectively collected COVID-19 patients who developed CRAB-VAP - defined according to Center for Diseases Control (CDC) 2020 criteria and European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID) or Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) guidelines - to describe characteristics and outcome.
Results: Among 21 patients with CRAB-VAP in COVID-19, median age was 66 years (IQR 41-80). Median time of VAP-onset was 7 days (IQR 0-28 days) from ICU - admission and 76.2% had septic shock. Treatment regimens were all colistin-based, in 28% (n=6) including ampicillin/sulbactam and rifampicin. In three cases, cefiderocol was started as rescue. Survival rate at 28-days was 35% (n=7).
Conclusion: Non-fermenting Gram-negative bacteria are an emerging aetiology of VAP in COVID-19 patients. This underscores the urgent need for proper microbiological identification to address therapies and infection control protocols.
期刊介绍:
The Journal publishes original papers, in Italian or in English, on topics concerning aetiopathogenesis, prevention, epidemiology, diagnosis, clinical features and therapy of infections, whose acceptance is subject to the referee’s assessment. The Journal is of interest not only to infectious disease specialists, microbiologists and pharmacologists, but also to internal medicine specialists, paediatricians, pneumologists, and to surgeons as well. The Editorial Board includes experts in each of the above mentioned fields.
