摘要
Background: Carbapenem-resistant (Car-R) Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an urgent threat. These isolates may remain susceptible to traditional noncarbapenem antipseudomonal β-lactams, but it is unclear if carbapenem resistance impacts the effectiveness of these agents. Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare clinical outcomes in Car-R and cephalosporin-susceptible (Ceph-S) P. aeruginosa pneumonia treated with cefepime versus other susceptible agents. Methods: This retrospective cohort study evaluated patients diagnosed with hospital-acquired or ventilator-associated pneumonia who had a respiratory isolate of Car-R Ceph-S P. aeruginosa. Patients were excluded if they had polymicrobial respiratory cultures, other concomitant infections, empyema, death within 3 days of index culture, or received less than 3 days of susceptible therapy. Patients treated with cefepime were compared to other susceptible therapies. The primary endpoint was 30-day in-hospital mortality. Results: Eighty-seven patients were included: cefepime, n = 61; other susceptible therapies, n = 26. There were no differences in 30-day in-hospital mortality between cefepime and other susceptible therapies (19.6% vs. 19.2%, p value = 0.719). In addition, there were no differences between clinical cure rates (cefepime 65.6% vs. other therapies 72 %, p value = 0.47). In multivariate logistic regression, treatment with cefepime (odds ratio [OR], 0.57; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.11-2.52) was not independently associated with 30-day in-hospital mortality. Conclusion and Relevance: For the treatment of Car-R Ceph-S P. aeruginosa pneumonia, cefepime showed similar rates of 30-day in-hospital mortality and clinical outcomes when compared to other susceptible therapies. Cefepime may be utilized to conserve novel β-lactam and β-lactamase inhibitors.
