Risk factors for prolonged infection and secondary infection in pediatric severe sepsis.
Purpose: Sepsis causes significant worldwide morbidity and mortality. Inability to clear an infection and secondary infections are known complications in severe sepsis and likely result in worsened outcomes. We sought to characterize risk factors of these complications.
Methods: We performed a secondary analysis of clinical data from 401 subjects enrolled in the PHENOtyping sepsis-induced Multiple organ failure Study. We examined factors associated with prolonged infection, defined as infection that continued to be identified 7 days or more from initial identification, and secondary infection, defined as new infections identified ≥ 3 days from presentation. Multivariable adjustment was performed to examine laboratory markers of immune depression, with immunocompromised and immunocompetent subjects analyzed separately.
Results: Illness severity, immunocompromised status, invasive procedures, and site of infection were associated with secondary infection and/or prolonged infection. Persistent lymphopenia, defined as an absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) < 1000 cells/µL twice in the first five days, and persistent neutropenia, defined as absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1000 cells/µL twice in the first five days, were associated with secondary and prolonged infections. When adjusted in multivariable analysis, persistent lymphopenia remained associated with secondary infection in both immunocompromised (aOR = 14.19, 95% CI [2.69, 262.22] and immunocompetent subjects (aOR = 2.09, 95% CI [1.03, 4.17]). Persistent neutropenia was independently associated with secondary infection in immunocompromised subjects (aOR = 5.34, 95% CI [1.92, 15.84]). Secondary and prolonged infections were associated with worse outcomes, including death.
Conclusions: Laboratory markers of immune suppression can be used to predict secondary infection. Lymphopenia is an independent risk factor in immunocompromised and immunocompetent patients for secondary infection.
期刊介绍:
Infection is a journal dedicated to serving as a global forum for the presentation and discussion of clinically relevant information on infectious diseases. Its primary goal is to engage readers and contributors from various regions around the world in the exchange of knowledge about the etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of infectious diseases, both in outpatient and inpatient settings.
The journal covers a wide range of topics, including:
Etiology: The study of the causes of infectious diseases.
Pathogenesis: The process by which an infectious agent causes disease.
Diagnosis: The methods and techniques used to identify infectious diseases.
Treatment: The medical interventions and strategies employed to treat infectious diseases.
Public Health: Issues of local, regional, or international significance related to infectious diseases, including prevention, control, and management strategies.
Hospital Epidemiology: The study of the spread of infectious diseases within healthcare settings and the measures to prevent nosocomial infections.
In addition to these, Infection also includes a specialized "Images" section, which focuses on high-quality visual content, such as images, photographs, and microscopic slides, accompanied by brief abstracts. This section is designed to highlight the clinical and diagnostic value of visual aids in the field of infectious diseases, as many conditions present with characteristic clinical signs that can be diagnosed through inspection, and imaging and microscopy are crucial for accurate diagnosis. The journal's comprehensive approach ensures that it remains a valuable resource for healthcare professionals and researchers in the field of infectious diseases.
