Abstract
Background Considering the therapeutic difficulties and mortality associated with bloodstream infection (BSI), it is essential to investigate other potential factors affecting mortality in critically ill patients with BSI and examine the utility of the quick Pitt bacteremia (qPitt) score to improve the survival rate. Objectives To improve the predictive accuracy of the qPitt scoring system by evaluating the five current components of qPitt and including other potential factors influencing mortality in critically ill patients with BSI. Design This was a retrospective cohort study. Methods Medical information from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database was used in this retrospective cohort study. The risk factors associated with mortality were examined using a multivariate logistic regression model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to assess the discriminatory capability of the prediction models. Results In total, 1240 eligible critically ill patients with BSI were included. After adjustment for age, community-onset BSI, indwelling invasive lines, and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) ⩽ 8, acute kidney injury (AKI) was identified as a notable risk factor for 14-day mortality. Except for altered mental status, the four other main components of the original qPitt were significantly associated with 14-day mortality. Hence, we established a modified qPitt (m-qPitt) by adding AKI and replacing altered mental status with GCS ⩽ 8. The AUCs for m-qPitt and qPitt were 0.723 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.683-0.759] and 0.708 (95% CI: 0.669-0.745) in predicting 14-day mortality, respectively. Moreover, m-qPitt also had acceptable performance and discrimination power [0.700 (95% CI: 0.666-0.732)] in predicting 28-day mortality. Conclusion AKI significantly influenced the survival of critically ill patients with BSIs. Compared with the original qPitt, our new m-qPitt was proven to have a better predictive performance for mortality in critically ill patients with BSI. Further studies should be conducted to validate the practicality of m-qPitt.

Prognostic Risk Factors of Carbapenem-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria Bloodstream Infection in Immunosuppressed Patients: A 7-Year Retrospective Cohort Study. Infect Drug Resist 2022; 15:6451-6462. [PMID: 36349216 PMCID: PMC9637366 DOI: 10.2147/idr.s386342] [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: 08/21/2022] [Accepted: 10/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria bloodstream infection (CRGNB-BSI) has gradually become a major threat worldwide due to its treatment difficulty and high mortality. This study aimed to determine the risk factors for CRGNB-BSI in immunosuppressed patients. Patients and Methods A total of 427 immunosuppressed patients with CRGNB-BSI were retrospectively investigated from 2015 to 2021. Both univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were applied to evaluate independent risk factors for CRGNB-BSI. Results The most common etiology was Klebsiella Pneumoniae (50.59%; 216/427), while the Acinetobacillus baumannii infection was associated with the highest mortality (58.25%) among all etiologies. The 60-day mortality of immunosuppressed patients with CRGNB-BSI was 52.48% (224/427). Procalcitonin (PCT) > 0.5 μg/L (OR = 2.32, 95% CI: 1.28-4.19, P = 0.005) and age > 55 years (OR = 2.06, 95% CI: 1.17-3.64, P = 0.012) were found to be predictors of 60-day mortality of CRGNB-BSI, and tigecycline regimen (OR = 3.20, 95% CI: 1.81-5.67, P < 0.001) was associated with higher mortality. Multivariate analysis also revealed that patients who developed acute kidney injury (AKI) (OR = 2.19, 95% CI: 1.11-4.30, P = 0.023), gastrointestinal bleeding (OR = 3.18, 95% CI: 1.10-9.16, P = 0.032), multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) (OR = 12.11, 95% CI: 2.61-56.19, P = 0.001), and septic shock (OR = 3.24, 95% CI: 1.77-5.94, P < 0.001) showed worse outcomes. The risk factors were also significantly associated with mortality in the different subgroups. Conclusion This study demonstrated that PCT > 0.5 μg/L, age > 55 years, and the tigecycline regimen were significantly associated with higher 60-day mortality among immunosuppressed patients with CRGNB- BSI. Patients developing MODS, septic shock, or AKI had worse clinical outcomes. .

Front Microbiol 2022; 13:1037735. [PMID: 36386651 PMCID: PMC9663990 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.1037735] [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: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 10/14/2022] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acinetobacter baumannii complex-caused bloodstream infection (ABCBSI) is a potentially fatal infection in intensive care units (ICUs). This study proposed an interpretable machine learning (ML) model to predict ABCBSI fulminant fatality. METHODS A retrospective study of ICU patients with ABCBSI was performed in China from 2009 to 2020. Patients were stratified into two groups: those that suffered from fulminant sepsis and died within 48 h, and those that survived for more than 48 h. The clinical score systems and ML models with Shapley additive explanation (SHAP) were used to develop the prediction models. The ML model was internally validated with five-fold cross-validation, and its performance was assessed using seven typical evaluation indices. The top 20 features ranked by the SHAP scores were also calculated. RESULTS Among 188 ICU patients with ABCBSI, 53 were assigned to the non-survival group and 135 to the survival group. The XGBoost model exhibited the greatest area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), which outperformed other models (logistic regression, AUC = 0.914; support vector machine, AUC = 0.895; random forest, AUC = 0.972; and naive Bayesian, AUC = 0.908) and clinical scores (Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II), AUC = 0.855; Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA), AUC = 0.837). It also had a sensitivity of 0.868, a specificity of 0.970, an accuracy of 0.941, a positive predictive value of 0.920, a negative predictive value of 0.949, and an F1 score of 0.893. As well as identifying the top 12 different important predictors that contribute to early mortality, it also assessed their quantitative contribution and noteworthy thresholds. CONCLUSION Based on the XGBoost model, early mortality in ABCBSI is estimated to be more reliable than other models and clinical scores. The 12 most important features with corresponding thresholds were identified and more importantly, the SHAP method can be used to interpret this predictive model and support individual patient treatment strategies.

Comparison of pneumonia- and non-pneumonia-related Acinetobacter baumannii complex bacteremia: A single-center retrospective study. Am J Infect Control 2022; 51:567-573. [PMID: 35948125 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajic.2022.08.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2022] [Revised: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acinetobacter baumannii complex (ABC) is a group of increasingly prevalent opportunistic pathogens that cause a variety of life-threatening nosocomial infections, especially in the intensive care unit (ICU). This study assessed the differences between pneumonia- and non-pneumonia-related ABC bacteremia and possible independent risk factors for 30-day mortality. METHODS The clinical data of ICU patients diagnosed with ABC bacteremia at a tertiary care hospital from January 2009 to December 2020 were collected, and sorted into groups of ABC bacteremia with and without pneumonia. RESULTS Significant changes in the incidence of ABC bacteremia and antibiotic resistance were observed over the 12-year study. Compared with nonpneumonia-related ABC bacteremia, pneumonia-related ABC bacteremia was associated with a higher rate of hypertension, less prior tigecycline use, more carbapenem-resistant (CR) strains, and a higher 30-day mortality rate. In multivariate analysis, immunosuppression, higher APACHE II score, and SOFA score were independent risk factors for 30-day mortality. Moreover, the risk of death was 1.919 times higher in the pneumonia-related group. CONCLUSIONS Although pneumonia-related ABC bacteremia had worse outcomes, it was not an independent risk factor for death statistically. Immunosuppression and disease severity levels increased the risks of death in ICU patients with ABC bacteremia.

Colistin-Induced Acute Kidney Injury and the Effect on Survival in Patients with Multidrug-Resistant Gram-Negative Infections: Significance of Drug Doses Adjusted to Ideal Body Weight. Int J Nephrol 2021; 2021:7795096. [PMID: 34966562 PMCID: PMC8712152 DOI: 10.1155/2021/7795096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2021] [Accepted: 12/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Colistin is a lifesaving treatment for multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial (MDR-GNB) infections along with its well-known nephrotoxicity. The controversy of colistin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) on mortality is noted. This study aimed to determine the risk factors and impact of AKI on the survival and significance of colistin dosage. Methods A retrospective cohort study was performed in adult patients who received intravenous colistin for MDR-GNB treatment between June 2015 and June 2017. Factors influencing colistin-induced AKI and survival were evaluated by Cox regression analysis. Cut-off levels of the colistin dose per ideal body weight (IBW) that significantly affected clinical outcomes were assessed with linearity trends and receiver operating characteristic analyses. Results AKI occurred in 68.5% of 412 enrolled patients with an incidence rate of 10.6 per 100 patients-days and a median time was 6 (3–13) days. Stages I–III of AKI were 38.3, 24.5, and 37.2%. Factors associated with colistin-induced AKI were advanced age, high serum bilirubin, AKI presented before colistin administration, increased daily colistin doses per IBW, and concomitant use of nephrotoxic drugs. Colistin-induced AKI was related to mortality (HR 1.74, 95% CI 1.06–2.86, p=0.028). In the non-AKI before colistin usage subgroup, the total dose and total dose/IBW were >1,500–2,000 mg and 30–35 mg/kg to benefit mortality reduction but were <2,500–3,000 mg and 45–50 mg/kg for risk reduction of AKI. A daily colistin dose/IBW >4.5 mg/kg/day also increased the risk of AKI. In the AKI developed before colistin subgroup, the cut-off values of total colistin dose >1250–1350 mg and total dose/IBW >23.5–24 mg/kg demonstrated significant risks of AKI. Conclusion The incidence of AKI after colistin administration was high and impacted mortality. Prevention and early correction of these related factors are mandatory. Careful use of colistin was also both beneficial in mortality and AKI reductions.
