          Abstract

          Resumen: Introducción: el manejo de antibióticos en las unidades de cuidados intensivos (UCI) es un tema prioritario. Conocer la epidemiología bacteriana y su sensibilidad es fundamental para aumentar la sobrevida de nuestros pacientes. Material y métodos: se realizó un estudio tipo cohorte retrospectiva en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos del Hospital Ángeles del Carmen durante el periodo de 2018 a 2020 en pacientes con infección documentada y con cultivo positivo. Se obtuvo el patrón de sensibilidad antimicrobiana y se analizó de acuerdo al origen Gram, tipo de infección, reactantes de fase aguda y mortalidad. Se realizó comparación de medias y proporciones con χ2, t de Student y ANOVA. Se obtuvieron razones de desventajas (OR) para identificar variables asociadas a resolución. Se consideró un valor de p < 0.05 para significancia estadística. Resultados: se analizaron 308 cultivos bacterianos obtenidos de 188 pacientes, principalmente de origen respiratorio, urinario y torrente sanguíneo (76.7%), de origen nosocomial (65.3%), con predominio de gram-negativos (65%) multidrogorresistentes. La procedencia comunitaria se asoció más a infección que la nosocomial (85 versus 61.7%, OR 3.5, IC 95% 1.93-6.45, p < 0.001). El porcentaje de infección fue mayor en gram-negativos (71.8 versus 66%, OR 1.10, IC 95% de 0.91-1.32, p = 0.297). Las infecciones por gram-positivos tuvieron menor porcentaje de mortalidad que aquéllas por gram-negativos (17.9 versus 30.7%, OR 0.49, IC 95% de 0.27-0.88, p = 0.016) así como las infecciones comunitarias en comparación con nosocomiales (17.8 versus 30.8%, OR 0.48, IC 95% de 0.27-0.86, p = 0.013). Conclusión: las bacterias predominantes en nuestra unidad de cuidados críticos son bacilos gram-negativos multidrogorresistentes, provenientes de infecciones respiratorias, urinarias y de torrente sanguíneo. Las infecciones por gram-positivos y adquiridas en la comunidad se asociaron a menor riesgo de mortalidad.

          Abstract: Introduction: local identification of antimicrobial susceptibility and resistance patterns must be a priority in intensive care units. Material and methods: a cohort study was conducted in the intensive care unit from 2018 to 2020, identifying patients with an infectious diagnosis and a positive culture, with prospective clinical and laboratory follow-up. Antimicrobial resistance patterns were analyzed according to source, gram, type of infection, acute phase reactants and outcome, comparing means and proportions with χ2, Student t and ANOVA. OR were obtained to identify resolution-associated variables. A p < 0.05 value was considered as statistically significant. Results: 308 cultures were analyzed, obtained from 188 patients. Primary souces were respiratory, urinary and bloodstream (76.7%), 65.3% were from in-hospital infections, and 65% were caused by gram-negative multi-drug resistant bacteria. Community cultures were more associated with infection compares with in-hospital cultures (85 vs 61.7%, OR 3.5, 95% CI 1.93-6.45, p < 0.001). Gram-negative bacteria had a greater association with infection compared with gram-positive (71.8 vs 66%, OR 1.10, 95% CI 0.91-1.32, p = 0.297), but infections caused by gram-positive bacteria had a greater association with resolution (82.1 vs 68.8%, OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.16-3.70, p = 0.019), as well as community infections (82.2 vs 68.7%, OR 2.11, 95% CI 1.18-3.77, p = 0.016). Conclusion: multi-drug resistant gram-negative bacteria were the principal isolates found in respiratory, urine and bloodstream infections in our intensive care unit. Community infections and gram-positive isolates were associated with greater resolution rates.

          Resumo: Introdução: a gestão de antibióticos em Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos é uma questão prioritária. Conhecer a epidemiologia bacteriana e sua suscetibilidade é essencial para aumentar a sobrevida de nossos pacientes. Material e métodos: foi realizado um estudo de coorte retrospectivo na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva do Hospital Ángeles del Carmen durante o período de 2018 a 2020, em pacientes com infecção documentada e com cultura positiva. O padrão de sensibilidade antimicrobiana foi obtido e analisado segundo origem, grama, tipo de infecção, reagentes de fase aguda e mortalidade. A comparação de médias e proporções foi feita com χ2, teste t de Student e ANOVA. Razões de desvantagem (OR) foram obtidas para identificar variáveis associadas à resolução. Um valor de p < 0.05 foi considerado para significância estatística. Resultados: foram analisadas 308 culturas bacterianas obtidas de 188 pacientes, principalmente de origem respiratória, urinária e sanguínea (76.7%), de origem nosocomial (65.3%), com predominância de gram-negativos (65%) multirresistentes. A origem comunitária foi mais associada à infecção do que a nosocomial (85 vs 61.7%, OR 3.5, IC 95% 1.93-6.45, p < 0.001). A porcentagem de infecção foi maior para gram-negativos (71.8 vs 66%, OR 1.10, IC 95% 0.91-1.32, p = 0.297). As infecções Gram-positivas tiveram uma taxa de mortalidade menor do que as infecções Gram-negativas (17.9 vs 30.7%, OR 0.49, IC 95% de 0.27-0.88, p = 0.016), bem como infecções comunitárias em comparação com as nosocomiais (17.8 vs 30.8%, OR 0.48, IC 95% de 0.27-0.86, p = 0.013). Conclusão: as bactérias predominantes em nossa unidade de terapia intensiva são bacilos gram-negativos multirresistentes, originários de infecções respiratórias, urinárias e de corrente sanguínea. As infecções gram-positivas e adquiridas na comunidade foram associadas a um menor risco de mortalidade.

          Antibiotic resistance-the need for global solutions.

          The causes of antibiotic resistance are complex and include human behaviour at many levels of society; the consequences affect everybody in the world. Similarities with climate change are evident. Many efforts have been made to describe the many different facets of antibiotic resistance and the interventions needed to meet the challenge. However, coordinated action is largely absent, especially at the political level, both nationally and internationally. Antibiotics paved the way for unprecedented medical and societal developments, and are today indispensible in all health systems. Achievements in modern medicine, such as major surgery, organ transplantation, treatment of preterm babies, and cancer chemotherapy, which we today take for granted, would not be possible without access to effective treatment for bacterial infections. Within just a few years, we might be faced with dire setbacks, medically, socially, and economically, unless real and unprecedented global coordinated actions are immediately taken. Here, we describe the global situation of antibiotic resistance, its major causes and consequences, and identify key areas in which action is urgently needed. Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

            Does this adult patient with suspected bacteremia require blood cultures?

            Clinicians order blood cultures liberally among patients in whom bacteremia is suspected, though a small proportion of blood cultures yield true-positive results. Ordering blood cultures inappropriately may be both wasteful and harmful. To review the accuracy of easily obtained clinical and laboratory findings to inform the decision to obtain blood cultures in suspected bacteremia. A MEDLINE and EMBASE search (inception to April 2012) yielded 35 studies that met inclusion criteria for evaluating the accuracy of clinical variables for bacteremia in adult immunocompetent patients, representing 4566 bacteremia and 25,946 negative blood culture episodes. Data were extracted to determine the prevalence and likelihood ratios (LRs) of findings for bacteremia. The pretest probability of bacteremia varies depending on the clinical context, from low (eg, cellulitis: 2%) to high (eg, septic shock: 69%). Elevated temperatures alone do not accurately predict bacteremia (for ≥38°C [>100.3°F], LR, 1.9 [95% CI, 1.4-2.4]; for ≥38.5°C [>101.2°F], LR, 1.4 [95% CI, 1.1-2.0]), nor does isolated leukocytosis (LR, <1.7). The severity of chills graded on an ordinal scale (shaking chills, LR, 4.7; 95% CI, 3.0-7.2) may be more useful. Both the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and a multivariable decision rule with major and minor criteria are sensitive (but not specific) predictors of bacteremia (SIRS, negative LR, 0.09 [95% CI, 0.03-0.26]; decision rule, negative LR, 0.08 [95% CI, 0.04-0.17]). Blood cultures should not be ordered for adult patients with isolated fever or leukocytosis without considering the pretest probability. SIRS and the decision rule may be helpful in identifying patients who do not need blood cultures. These conclusions do not apply to immunocompromised patients or when endocarditis is suspected.
