Abstract
Background Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) has emerged as one of the most challenging pathogens worldwide, causing invasive infections in the critically ill patients due to their ability to rapidly acquire resistance to antibiotics. This study aimed to analyze antibiotic resistance genes harbored in AB and non-baumannii Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-baumannii (NB-ACB) complex causing invasive diseases in Korean children. Methods ACB complexes isolated from sterile body fluid of children in three referral hospitals were prospectively collected. Colistin susceptibility was additionally tested via broth microdilution. Whole genome sequencing was performed and antibiotic resistance genes were analyzed. Results During January 2015 to December 2020, a total of 67 ACB complexes were isolated from sterile body fluid of children in three referral hospitals. The median age of the patients was 0.6 (interquartile range, 0.1-7.2) years old. Among all the isolates, 73.1% (n=49) were confirmed as AB and others as NB-ACB complex by whole genome sequencing. Among the AB isolates, only 22.4% susceptible to carbapenem. In particular, all clonal complex (CC) 92 AB (n=33) showed multi-drug resistance, whereas 31.3% in non-CC92 AB (n=16) (P<0.001). NB-ACB showed 100% susceptibility to all classes of antibiotics except 3rd generation cephalosporin (72.2%). The main mechanism of carbapenem resistance in AB was the bla oxa23 gene with ISAba1 insertion sequence upstream. Presence of pmr gene and/or mutation of lpxA/C gene were not correlated with the phenotype of colistin resistance of ACB. All AB and NB-ACB isolates carried the abe and ade multidrug efflux pumps. Conclusions In conclusion, monitoring and research for resistome in ACB complex is needed to identify and manage drug-resistant AB, particularly CC92 AB carrying the bla oxa23 gene.

Establishment and Validation of a Risk Prediction Model for Mortality in Patients with Acinetobacter baumannii Infection: A Retrospective Study. Infect Drug Resist 2023; 16:7855-7866. [PMID: 38162321 PMCID: PMC10757776 DOI: 10.2147/idr.s423969] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose This study aims to establish a valuable risk prediction model for mortality in patients with Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii). Patients and Methods The 622 patients with A. baumannii infection from the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were enrolled as the study cohort. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to preliminarily screen the independent risk factors of death caused by A. baumannii infection, followed by LASSO regression analysis to determine the risk factors. According to the calculated regression coefficient, the Nomogram death prediction model is established. The area under the curve (AUC) and decision curve analysis (DCA) of the operating characteristic (ROC) curve of the subjects are used to evaluate the discrimination of the established prediction model. The calibration degree of the prediction model is represented by a calibration chart. A validation cohort that consisted of 477 patients admitted to the 901st Hospital was also included. Results Our results revealed that the source of infection, carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii, mechanical ventilation, serum albumin value, and Charlson comorbidity index were independent risk factors for death caused by A. baumannii infection. The AUC value of ROC curves of study cohort and validation cohort were 0.76 and 0.69, respectively. The probability range (30-80%) indicated a high net income of the modified model and strong capacity of discrimination. The calibration curve obtained by analysis swings up and down around the 45 diagonal line, which shows that the calibration degree of the prediction model is very high. Conclusion In this study, we have reconstructed a risk prediction model for mortality in patients with A. baumannii infections. This model provides useful information to predict the risk of death in patients with A. baumannii infection, but the specificity is not optimistic. If this prediction model is wanted to be applied to clinical practice, more analysis and research are necessary.

Insights into the epidemiology, risk factors, and clinical outcomes of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infections in critically ill children. Front Public Health 2023; 11:1282413. [PMID: 38098829 PMCID: PMC10720883 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2023.1282413] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/13/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and aims Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) has become a leading cause of nosocomial infections with an increasing impact on critically ill patients, yet there is limited data on contributing factors. This study was aim to evaluate the prevalence and risk factors, and clinical outcomes of CRAB infections among critically ill children in a tertiary university teaching hospital in China. Methods From January 2016 to December 2021, all children diagnosed with nosocomial Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) infections in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) were identified through the computerized microbiology laboratory databases. Among them, children suffering from CRAB infection were designated as a case group, while children with carbapenem susceptible A. baumannii (CSAB) infection were assigned to a control group. This retrospective case-control study was based on two groups of patients to determine potential clinical factors contributing to CRAB infection and death among critically ill children via univariate and multivariate analyses. Results During the 6-year study period, a total of 372 episodes of nosocomial A. baumannii infection in the PICU were eligible and included in the study. These isolates displayed moderate or high rates of resistance to all tested antimicrobials except colistin. The overall prevalence of CRAB and MDRAB (multidrug-resistant A. baumannii) was 78.0% and 80.9%, respectively. Several risk factors found to significantly increase CRAB infection included receiving invasive operation (OR = 9.412, p = 0.001), gastric intubation (OR = 2.478, p = 0.026), prior carbapenems exposure (OR = 2.543, p = 0.003), severe pneumonia (OR = 3.235, p = 0.001), and hemoglobin <110g/L (OR = 3.049, p = 0.005). Of 372 patients with CRAB infection, the mortality rate was 30.9% (115/372) and mortality did not differ between children with CRAB and CSAB infections. Septic shock (OR = 2.992, p = 0.001), AST > 46U/L (OR = 2.015, p = 0.005), bone marrow aspiration (OR = 2.704, p = 0.008), lymphocyte <20 % (OR = 1.992, p = 0.006) and age (OR = 1.094, p = 0.002) were independent risk factors for the death of A. baumanni infection. Conclusions This study highlights considerable incidence rate and remarkable mortality of children with A. baumanni (especially CRAB) infections, and identifies age-specific risk factors for CRAB infection and mortality in critically ill children. These risk factors should be taken into account in pediatric hospitals in order to establish early intervention and rational treatment to improve clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Risk factors related to mortality due to Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) bacteremia have been unveiled previously, but early clinical manifestations of AB bacteremia based on prognosis remain uncovered. METHODS The demographic characteristics, clinical features, antibiotic susceptibility, and outcomes of 37 hospitalized children with laboratory-confirmed AB bacteremia from Suzhou, China, were collected and analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS Of the 37 children with AB bacteremia included in this study, 23 were males and 14 were females, with a median age of 4.83 (0.60 to 10.15) years. Among the children, 18 died (48.65%, 18/37) and 19 survived (51.35%, 19/37). The dead group had a significantly higher incidence of respiratory failure (p = 0.008), shock (P = 0.000), MODS (p = 0.000), neutropenia (< 1.5 × 109/L) (p = 0.000) and serious neutropenia (< 0.5 × 109/L) (p = 0.000) than those in the survival group. The death group had significantly more invasive procedures (2 or more) than that in the survival group at 2 weeks before onset (p = 0.005). The proportion of MDR-AB in the death group was significantly higher than that in the survival group (p = 0.000), while the PICS score was significantly lower in the survival group than that in the death group (p = 0.000). There was no significant difference in effective antibiotic use within 24 h between these two groups (p = 0.295). Among the 37 children with bloodstream infection of AB, 56.76% (21/37) of the underlying diseases were hematological diseases and oncology. Among them, 17 (81.00%) were died in the hospital. The proportion of white blood cells (p = 0.000), neutrophils (p = 0.042), eosinophils (p = 0.029), the ANC (p = 0.000) and lymphocyte (p = 0.000), the NLR(p = 0.011), hemoglobin (p = 0.001), platelets (p = 0.000), prealbumin (P = 0.000), LDH (p = 0.017), blood gas pH (p = 0.000), and serum potassium (p = 0.002) in the death group were significantly lower than those in the survival group. However, CRP (p = 0.000) and blood glucose(p = 0.036) were significantly higher in the death group than those in the survival group. By further multivariate analysis, CRP [OR (95% CI): 1.022(1.003, 1.041), p = 0.021] and neutropenia [OR (95% CI): 21.634 (2.05, 228.313, p = 0.011] within 24 h of infection were independent risk factors for death in children with AB bacteremia. When CRP was higher than 59.02 mg/L, the sensitivity of predicting mortality was 88.9%, and the specificity was 78.9%. And the sensitivity and specificity of neutropenia for predicting mortality were 83.3% and 84.2%. CONCLUSIONS AB bacteremia has a high mortality in children, especially in patients with hematological diseases and oncology. Many early indicators were associated with poor prognosis, while elevated CRP and neutropenia were the independent predictors for the 30-day mortality of children with laboratory-confirmed AB bacteremia.

Acinetobacter baumannii Infection-Related Mortality in Hospitalized Patients: Risk Factors and Potential Targets for Clinical and Antimicrobial Stewardship Interventions. Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11081086. [PMID: 36009955 PMCID: PMC9405145 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11081086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2022] [Revised: 08/04/2022] [Accepted: 08/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Due to resistance and scarcity of treatment options, nosocomial Acinetobacter baumannii infections are associated with significant fatality rates. We investigated the factors contributing to infection-related deaths to develop tailored stewardship interventions that could reduce these high mortality rates. We reviewed the medical records of adult inpatients with A. baumannii infections over two years. Patient demographics and clinical data were collected and statistically analyzed. The study included 321 patients with positive A. baumannii microbiological cultures, with respiratory infections accounting for 58.6%, soft tissues 29.3%, bacteremia 8.6%, urine 2.1%, and others 1.4%. The study population’s median (IQR) age was 62.6 (38.9−94.9) years, and hospital stay was 20 (9.5−40) days. Statistical analysis revealed that various risk factors contribute significantly to high in-hospital all-cause mortality (44%), as well as 14-day and 28-day mortality rates. Deaths increased by a factor of 1.04 with every additional year of age (p = 0.000), admission to the critical care unit (p = 0.000, OR: 2.86), and patients admitted with an infectious diagnosis had nearly three times the mortality rate as those admitted with other diagnoses (p = 0.000, OR: 3.12). Male gender (p < 0.001, OR: 2.14), any comorbid conditions (p = 0.000, OR: 5.29), prolonged hospitalization (>7 days) (p = 0.023, OR: 1.98), and hospital acquisition of infection (p = 0.027, OR: 1.68) were among the most significant predictors of mortality. All variables were investigated for their impact on all-cause, 14-day, and 28-day mortality rates. Improving multidisciplinary infection control practices, regular disinfection of patient care equipment, and optimal intubation practice that avoids unnecessary intubation are necessary interventions to reduce infection-related mortality rates. Better antibiotic selection and de-escalation, shorter hospital stays whenever possible, prompt medical stabilization of comorbid conditions, and fewer unnecessary admissions to critical care units will all lead to improved outcomes.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the differences in clinical characteristics and impact of carbapenem resistance (CR) on outcomes between Acinetobacter baumannii (Ab) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) bacteraemia. We prospectively identified all patients with Ab and Pa bacteraemia in 10 hospitals over 1 year. Treatment failure was defined as all-cause 30-day mortality, persistent bacteraemia, or recurrent bacteraemia within 30 days. We included 304 Ab and 241 Pa bacteraemia cases. CR was detected in 216 patients (71%) with Ab bacteraemia and 55 patients (23%) with Pa bacteraemia. Treatment failure was significantly higher in CR-Ab than in CR-Pa (60.6% vs. 34.5%, P = 0.001). In Ab, severe sepsis or septic shock and high Pitt bacteraemia score were independent risk factors for treatment failure in the inappropriate empirical antibiotics group. In Pa, hospital-acquired infection and high Pitt bacteraemia score were independent risk factors for treatment failure in both groups. CR was an independent risk factor in Ab for treatment failure in both groups, but not in Pa bacteraemia. We demonstrated significant differences in clinical characteristics and impact of CR on clinical outcomes between Ab and Pa bacteraemia, suggesting that different treatment approaches may be needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acinetobacter baumannii sepsis constitutes an extreme threat with a poor prognosis and is a difficult infection to control, especially in Asia. Moreover, a knowledge gap in the risk of mortality in neonatal A. baumannii sepsis still exists. METHODS This study aimed to identify the risk factors of mortality in neonates with A. baumannii sepsis in Thailand from 1996 to 2019. A multivariable logistic regression model was analyzed for nonsurvivors and survivors of neonatal A. baumannii sepsis. RESULTS In a 24-year period, 91 neonates with A. baumannii sepsis were reviewed. The median (interquartile range) gestational age and birth weight were 33 (28.5, 37.5) weeks and 1740 (987.5, 2730.0) g, respectively. The 30-day case fatality rate was 36.3% (33/91). In univariable analysis, nonsurvivors of neonatal A. baumannii sepsis was associated with smaller neonates, lower Apgar scores, septic shock, mechanical ventilation, umbilical catheterization, neutropenia, severe thrombocytopenia, carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii sepsis, inadequate empiric antimicrobial therapy, and acute kidney injury. In multivariable analysis, nonsurvivors of neonatal A. baumannii sepsis were associated with septic shock (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 41.38; 95% confidence intervals [CI]: 3.42-501.13; P = 0.003), severe thrombocytopenia (adjusted OR = 33.70; 95% CI: 3.44-330.55; P = 0.002), and inadequate empiric antimicrobial therapy (adjusted OR = 10.05; 95% CI: 1.40-71.98; P = 0.02). CONCLUSION In high multidrug-resistant areas, empiric treatment with broader spectrum antimicrobials should be considered in neonates with sepsis shock or severe thrombocytopenia.

Abstract
Purpose Acinetobacter baumannii is a major cause of hospital-acquired infections. Studies showed that carbapenem resistance was related to mortality. Carbapenem resistance depends on expression of β-lactamase in adults. The present study explores the relationship between β-lactamase gene expression and carbapenem resistance and outcomes in children with A. baumannii infections. Patients and Methods We gathered clinical data of 131 children diagnosed with hospital-associated A. baumannii infections from the pediatrics unit of Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University. We obtained 131 isolates of A. baumannii, determined the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) for common antibiotics, and measured carbapenemase-encoding genes expression using real-time PCR. Results We isolated 131 strains, 89 of which were carbapenem-resistant (MIC ≥ 8 µg/mL), and 42 carbapenem-sensitive strains. Univariate analysis identified statistically significant differences between the carbapenem-resistant group and the carbapenem-sensitive group for in-hospital days before infection, previous deep vein catheterization, previous urinary catheterization, previous treatment with a carbapenem (meropenem/imipenem), and expression of oxa-51 and oxa-23. Logistic regression analysis of factors associated with carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii infections found significant associations with oxa-23 expression (hazard ratio [HR] 0.005, confidence interval [CI] 95% 0-0.153, P = 0.002) and previous carbapenem treatment (HR 0.031 CI 95% 0.1-0.959, P = 0.042). Of 131 patients, 27 died within 30 days. Cox regression analysis of factors associated with 30-day mortality from A. baumannii infections showed that cephalosporin combined with sulbactam (HR 0.271, CI 95% 0.101-0.723, P = 0.009) was associated with 30-day survival. Conclusion The expression of oxa-23 and the use of carbapenems were independent risk factors for carbapenem resistance. The use of cephalosporins combined with sulbactam was independently associated with 30-day survival. We recommend using cephalosporins combined with sulbactam in children infected with A. baumannii.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Non-fermentative Gram-negative bacterias (NFGNBs) are a major cause of life threatening infections in hospitalized children. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the demographic and clinical characteristics of NFGNBs infections and identify the risk factors and outcomes of bloodstream infections (BSIs) caused by carbapenem-resistant (CR) NFGNBs infections. METHODS A retrospective cohort was designed to evaluate the patients with a BSI caused by NFGNBs between in January 2014 and December 2017. RESULTS A total of 131 episodes from 115 patients were evaluated. The mean age of the patients was 4.79±(4.74) year. The most commonly isolated NFGNBs species was Acinetobacter spp. (35.9%), Pseudomonas spp. (34.4%), and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (13%). The rate of carbapenem-resistance was 38.2% in Acinetobacter spp. and 26.6% in Pseudomonas spp. The comparison of CR group with carbapenem-susceptible (CS) group showed statistical significance for the length of hospital stay prior to onset of infection and total hospital stay (P values were 0.001, 0.008). Based on the univariate analysis, requirement of mechanical ventilation, central venous catheter, nasogastric tube, Foley catheter, severe neutropenia (<100/mm3), prolonged neutropenia (≥14 days), prior intensive care unit admission and prior antimicrobial treatment (carbapenems, colistin, glycopeptide) were more common in carbapenem-resistant NFGNBs infections (P values are 0.001, 0.012, 0.000, 0.005, 0.042, 0.027, 0.007, 0.007). In patients with NFGNBs infections 14-day and 30-day mortality rates were %16.8 and 21.4%. CONCLUSION CR infections were more common in children with prolonged and severe neutropenia. Prior antimicrobial use and intensive care unit admission were more common in CR infections.

Multidrug resistant and extensively drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii hospital infection associated with high mortality: a retrospective study in the pediatric intensive care unit. BMC Infect Dis 2020; 20:597. [PMID: 32787942 PMCID: PMC7422664 DOI: 10.1186/s12879-020-05321-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2019] [Accepted: 08/03/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Multidrug resistant (MDR) and extensively drug resistant (XDR) Acinetobacter baumannii presents challenges for clinical treatment and causes high mortality in children. We aimed to assess the risk factors and overall mortality for MDR/XDR Acinetobacter baumannii infected pediatric patients. Methods This retrospective study included 102 pediatric patients who developed MDR/XDR Acinetobacter baumannii infection in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of Shanghai Children’s Hospital in China from December 2014 to May 2018. Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates were recovered from different specimens including blood, sputum, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, cerebrospinal fluid, ascites, hydrothorax, and urine. Antibiotic susceptibility test was determined according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute interpretive criteria. Clinical and biological data were obtained from the patients’ medical records. Results 102 patients with Acinetobacter baumannii infection were enrolled. The median age was 36 (9.6, 98.8) months, and there were 63 male in the case group. The overall mortality rate was 29.4%, while the Acinetobacter baumannii-associated mortality rate was 16.7% (17/102, 12 bloodstream infections, 4 meningitis and 1 intra-abdominal infection). Bloodstream infections occurred in 28 patients (27.5%), and 10 patients (9.8%) among them had central line-associated bloodstream infections (6 central venous catheters, 2 PICCs, 1 venous infusion port and 1 arterial catheter). Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cultures were positive in 4(3.9%) patients. 14(13.7%) patients got positive cultures in ascites and hydrothorax. Lower respiratory isolates (56/102) accounted for 54.9% of all patients. Non-survival patients appeared to have a lower NK cell activity (6.2% ± 3.61% vs. 9.15% ± 6.21%, P = 0.029), higher CD4+ T cell ratio (39.67% ± 12.18% vs. 32.66% ± 11.44%, P = 0.039),and a higher serum level of interlukin-8 (IL-8, 15.25 (1.62, 47.22)pg/mL vs. 0.1 (0.1, 22.99)pg/mL, P = 0.01) when Acinetobacter baumannii infection developed. Multivariate logistic analysis indicated that high serum level of Cr (RR, 0.934, 95%CI, 0.890–0.981; P = 0.007) and high BUN/ALB level (RR, 107.893, 95%CI, 1.425–870.574; p = 0.005) were associated with high risk of mortality in MDR/XDR Acinetobacter baumannii infected patients. Conclusion MDR/XDR Acinetobacter baumannii infection is a serious concern in pediatric patients with high mortality. Bloodstream and central nervous system infection accounted for high risk of death. Acute kidney injury is associated with high risk of mortality.
