Resum
Objectives: We assess the epidemiology and risk factors for mortality of bloodstream infection (BSI) in patients with acute leukemia (AL). Methods:
Prospectively collected data of a cohort study from July 2004 to February 2016. Multivariate analyses were performed. Results: 589 episodes of BSI were documented in 357 AL patients, 55% caused by gram-positive bacteria (coagulase-negative staphylococci 35.7%, Enterococcus spp 10.8%) and 43.5% by gram-negative bacteria (E. coli 21%, PA 12%). We identified 110 (18.7%) multidrug-resistant (MDR) microorganisms, especially MDR-Pseudomonas aeruginosa (7%) and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing Enterobacteriaceae (7%). The 30-day mortality was 14.8%. Age (OR 3.1; 95% CI 1.7–5.7); chronic lung disease (4.8; 1.1–21.8); fatal prognosis according to McCabe index (13.9; 6.4–30.3); shock (3.8; 1.9–7.7); pulmonary infection (3.6; 1.3–9.9); and MDR-PA infections with inappropriate treatment (12.8; 4.1–40.5) were related to mortality. MDR-PA BSI was associated to prior antipseudomonal cephalosporin use (9.31; 4.38–19.79); current use of betalactams (2.01; 1.01–4.3); shock (2.63; 1.03–6.7) and pulmonary source of infection (9.6; 3.4–27.21). Conclusions: MDR organisms were commonly isolated in BSI in AL. Inappropriate empiric antibiotic treatment for MDR-PA is the primary factor related to mortality that can be changed. New treatment strategies to improve the coverage of MDR-PA BSI should be considered in those patients with risk factors for this infection.
