MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:medicina59050939. [PMID: 37241171 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59050939] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2023] [Revised: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
The diagnosis of infective endocarditis (IE) during pregnancy is accompanied by a poor prognosis for both mother and fetus in the absence of prompt management by multidisciplinary teams. We searched the electronic databases of PubMed, MEDLINE and EMBASE for clinical studies addressing the management of infective endocarditis during pregnancy, with the aim of realizing a literature review ranging from risk factors to diagnostic investigations to optimal therapeutic management for mother and fetus alike. The presence of previous cardiovascular pathologies such as rheumatic heart disease, congenital heart disease, prosthetic valves, hemodialysis, intravenous catheters or immunosuppression are the main risk factors predisposing patients to IE during pregnancy. The identification of modern risk factors such as intracardiac devices and intravenous drug administration as well as genetic diagnostic methods such as cell-free deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) next-generation sequencing require that these cases be addressed in multidisciplinary teams. Guiding treatment to eradicate infection and protect the fetus simultaneously creates challenges for cardiologists and gynecologists alike.

Factors associated with daptomycin consumption in French hospitals between 2019 and 2020: A nationwide surveillance study. Infect Dis Now 2023; 53:104636. [PMID: 36503170 DOI: 10.1016/j.idnow.2022.12.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 11/25/2022] [Accepted: 12/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate factors associated with daptomycin consumption in French healthcare facilities (HCF) between 2019 and 2020. METHODS Antibiotic consumption expressed as number of defined daily doses (DDD) per 1,000 patient-days (PD) and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) expressed as incidence densities per 1,000PD were extracted each year from the nationwide surveillance network run by the SPARES project (Surveillance and Prevention of Antimicrobial RESistance in hospitals), collecting data at ward level among voluntary HCFs using standardized methodology and webtool. All HCF participating both in 2019 and 2020 were included. A multivariable linear regression was fitted. RESULTS Among 622 HCFs, we analyzed daptomycin consumption and AMR data in 1,637 clinical wards. Incidence densities of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci (MRCNS) were the highest in intensive care unit wards (0.54 and 6.83 respectively in 2020). On the most adjusted model, the year 2020 was correlated with a higher daptomycin consumption (1.53; p = 0.01). A greater number of inpatient beds (0.01; p < 0.001), the presence of orthopedic surgery activity in the HCF (1.66; p < 0.02), MRSA (4.38; p < 0.001) and MRCNS (0.61; p < 0.001) incidence densities were associated with a higher daptomycin use. The final model explained 18% of the observed variance. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that daptomycin consumption was correlated to MRSA and MRCNS incidence densities, to the year 2020 and to non-modifiable HCF-related factors. Prevention of coagulase-negative staphylococci infections should be considered by antimicrobial stewardship teams when daptomycin use is going up in HCF.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Infective endocarditis is one of the most difficult-to-treat infectious diseases. AREAS COVERED We restricted this review to the anti-infective treatment of the main bacteria responsible for infective endocarditis, i.e. staphylococci, streptococci, enterococci, and Gram-negative bacilli, including HACEK. Specific topics of major interest in treatment strategy are covered as well, including empirical treatment, oral switch, and treatment duration. We searched in the MEDLINE database to identify relevant studies, trials, reviews, or meta-analyses until May 2020. EXPERT OPINION The use of aminoglycosides for the treatment of endocarditis has been dramatically reduced over the last 20 years. It should be administered once daily, and no longer than 2 weeks. For staphylococcal endocarditis, recent data reinforced the role of anti-staphylococcal penicillins, for methicillin-susceptible isolates (alternative, cefazolin), and vancomycin for methicillin-resistant isolates (alternative, daptomycin). For staphylococcal prosthetic-valve endocarditis, these treatments will be reinforced by the addition of gentamicin during the first 2 weeks, and rifampin throughout the whole treatment duration, i.e. 6 weeks. The optimal duration of antibacterial treatment is 4 weeks for most native valve endocarditis, and 6 weeks for prosthetic-valve endocarditis. The oral switch is safe in patients stabilized after the initial intravenous course.

Abstract
Despite many novel diagnostic strategies and advances in treatment, infective endocarditis (IE) remains a severe disease. The epidemiology of IE has shifted and staphylococci have replaced streptococci as the most common cause and nosocomially acquired infections, invasive procedures, indwelling cardiac devices and acquired infections due to intravenous drug abuse are more frequent. The incidence of IE has steadily increased in recent years and the patients affected are older and have more comorbidities. The modern treatment of IE is interdisciplinary. The pharmacotherapy of IE depends on the pathogen and its sensitivity. The presence of a bioprosthetic valve and implantable cardiac devices plays a significant role in selection of antibiotics and duration of treatment. This article provides an update and overview of the current clinical practice in diagnostics and pharmacotherapy of IE in adults with a special focus on partial oral therapy and the role of aminoglycosides.
