摘要
目的传染病流行病学表明,抗生素耐药性(AMR)是一个全球性的卫生问题。本研究旨在比较沙特阿拉伯王国OXA-48基因占优势的Ceftazidime/Avibactam (CAZ-AVI)治疗的确诊碳青霉烯耐药肠杆菌(CRE)感染患者的14天死亡率。方法本回顾性队列研究纳入2018年至2021年间接受CAZ-AVI或BAT治疗的确诊CRE感染的成年患者。应用Cox比例风险模型推导14天和30天死亡率的未调整和调整风险比。双变量分析包括分类数据的卡方检验,连续数据的t检验和Mann-Whitney检验。结果纳入157例患者;其中男性88例(56%),恶性肿瘤63例(40.1%),平均年龄54.85岁。70例(44.59%)接受CAZ-AVI治疗。菌血症(28%)和尿路感染(27.3%)是最常见的来源。主要病原菌为肺炎克雷伯菌(126,80.25%),检出OXA-48基因的占35.67%。接受头孢他啶/阿维巴坦治疗的患者14天死亡风险显著低于接受最佳可用治疗的患者(调整后HR = 0.45, 95% CI = 0.22-0.92)。结论cre是一种全球性威胁,具有高死亡率和高发病率。头孢他啶/阿维巴坦与接受CRE感染治疗的患者14天死亡率降低相关。需要更大规模的前瞻性试验来证实本研究的结果。
Mortality and clinical outcomes of ceftazidime/avibactam vs best available therapy in treating carbapenem-resistant enterobacterales infections: A retrospective cohort study
Objective
The epidemiology of infectious diseases shows that antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health issue. This study aimed to compare 14-day mortality in patients with confirmed Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) infections treated with Ceftazidime/Avibactam (CAZ-AVI) to the best available therapies (BAT) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia where there is a predominance of the OXA-48 gene.
Methods
This retrospective cohort study included adult patients with confirmed CRE infections treated with CAZ-AVI or BAT between 2018 and 2021. The Cox proportional hazards model was applied to derive both unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios for 14-days and 30-day mortality. Bivariate analyses included chi-squared tests for categorical data, t-tests and Mann-Whitney tests for continuous data.
Results
The study included 157 patients; of those, 88 (56 %) were males, 63 (40.1 %) had malignancy, and the mean age was 54.85 years. Seventy (44.59 %) received CAZ-AVI. Bacteraemia (28 %) and urinary tract infections (27.3 %) were the most common sources. Klebsiella pneumonia (126, 80.25 %) was the predominant pathogen, with OXA-48 gene identified in 35.67 % of cases. The risk of 14-day mortality for patients treated with Ceftazidime/Avibactam was significantly lower compared to patients treated with the best available therapies (adjusted HR = 0.45, 95 % CI = 0.22–0.92).
Conclusion
CRE represents a global threat and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Ceftazidime/Avibactam was associated with a lower risk of 14-day mortality in patients treated for CRE infections. Larger-scale prospective trials to confirm the outcomes of this study are needed.
