摘要

IntroductionLower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are a major cause of morbidity and death. Because of changes in how LRTIs are defined coupled with the increasing prevalence of drug resistance, there is a gap in knowledge regarding the current burden of antimicrobial use for Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)-defined LRTIs. We describe the infection characteristics, antibiotic consumption, and clinical and economic outcomes of patients with Gram-negative (GN) LRTIs treated in intensive care units (ICUs). MethodsThis was a retrospective, observational, cross-sectional study of adult patients treated in ICUs at two large academic medical centers in metropolitan Detroit, Michigan, from October 2013 to October 2015. To meet the inclusion criteria, patients must have had CDC-defined LRTI caused by a GN pathogen during ICU stay. Microbiological assessment of available Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates included minimum inhibitory concentrations for key antimicrobial agents. ResultsFour hundred and seventy-two patients, primarily from the community (346, 73.3%), were treated in medical ICUs (272, 57.6%). Clinically defined pneumonia was common (264, 55.9%). Six hundred and nineteen GN organisms were identified from index respiratory cultures: P.?aeruginosa was common (224, 36.2%), with 21.6% of these isolates being multidrug resistant. Cefepime (213, 45.1%) and piperacillin/tazobactam (174, 36.8%) were the most frequent empiric GN therapies. Empiric GN therapy was inappropriate in 44.6% of cases. Lack of in vitro susceptibility (80.1%) was the most common reason for inappropriateness. Patients with inappropriate empiric GN therapy had longer overall stay, which translated to a median total cost of care of $79,800 (interquartile range $48,775 to $129,600) versus $68,000 (interquartile range $38,400 to $116,175), p =?0.013. Clinical failure (31.5% vs 30.0%, p =?0.912) and in-hospital all-cause mortality (26.4% vs 25.9%, p =?0.814) were not different. ConclusionDrug-resistant pathogens were frequently found and empiric GN therapy was inappropriate in nearly 50% of cases. Inappropriate therapy led to increased lengths of stay and was associated with higher costs of care.
