Comparison of efficacy and safety between daptomycin plus β-lactam and daptomycin monotherapy for bloodstream infections due to gram-positive cocci: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Heliyon 2024; 10:e29811. [PMID: 38681574 PMCID: PMC11046193 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e29811] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives We performed a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the clinical or microbiological outcomes and safety of a combination of daptomycin (DAP) and β-lactams compared to DAP monotherapy in patients with blood stream infection (BSI) due to gram-positive cocci (GPC). Methods We searched Scopus, PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Ityuushi databases up to January 30, 2023. Outcomes included all-cause mortality, clinical failure, and creatine phosphokinase (CPK) elevation. Results Six cohorts or case-control studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included in the final meta-analysis. Combination therapy of DAP and β-lactams significantly reduced the mortality and clinical failure rate for all BSI due to GPC compared with the DAP monotherapy (mortality, odds ratio [OR] = 0.63, 95 % confidence interval [CI] = 0.41-0.98; clinical failure, OR = 0.42, 95 % CI = 0.22-0.81). In contrast, no significant difference was noted in the incidence of CPK elevation between the two groups (OR = 0.85, 95 % CI = 0.39-1.84). Conclusion Altogether, combination therapy of DAP and β-lactams can improve the prognosis for patients with BSI due to GPC compared with DAP alone. Therefore, it should be considered as an option for the empirical treatment of BSI caused by GPC.

Surgical Antimicrobial Prophylaxis in Neonates and Children Undergoing Neurosurgery: A RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method Consensus Study. Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11070856. [PMID: 35884111 PMCID: PMC9311924 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11070856] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2022] [Revised: 06/17/2022] [Accepted: 06/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Pediatric neurosurgery is a highly specialized branch of surgery in which surgical site infections (SSIs) are potentially serious complications that can also adversely affect a good surgical outcome, compromising functional recovery and, in some cases, even putting the patient’s life at risk. The main aim of this consensus document is to provide clinicians with a series of recommendations on antimicrobial prophylaxis for neonates and children undergoing neurosurgery. The following scenarios were considered: (1) craniotomy or cranial/cranio-facial approach to craniosynostosis; (2) neurosurgery with a trans-nasal-trans-sphenoidal approach; (3) non-penetrating head injuries; (4) penetrating head fracture; (5) spinal surgery (extradural and intradural); (6) shunt surgery or neuroendoscopy; (7) neuroendovascular procedures. Patients undergoing neurosurgery often undergo peri-operative antibiotic prophylaxis, with different schedules, not always supported by scientific evidence. This consensus provides clear and shared indications, based on the most updated literature. This work has been made possible by the multidisciplinary contribution of experts belonging to the most important Italian scientific societies, and represents, in our opinion, the most complete and up-to-date collection of recommendations on the behavior to be held in the peri-operative setting in this type of intervention, in order to guide physicians in the management of the patient, standardize approaches and avoid abuse and misuse of antibiotics.
