High mortality from carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae bloodstream infection

Luana Soares de Moraes et al.

Summary: This study evaluated clinical data from 107 patients with bloodstream infection caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae and conducted phenotypic and molecular analyses on 50.5% (54/107) of samples that exhibited resistance to carbapenems. The bla(NDM) gene was present in 90.4% (49/54) of these samples, bla(KPC) gene was found in one sample, and 7.4% (4/54) of samples showed no carbapenemase gene. The study identified four main clones and found that 11 samples were not genetically related. The median age of the patients was 58 years old, with a majority of males (60.7%). Comparing patients with and without carbapenem resistance, several factors including ICU stay, renal failure, previous antimicrobial use, Charlson's comorbidity index, invasive procedures, and death showed statistically significant differences. Additionally, renal failure, liver failure, and BSI with extensive-drug resistance (XDR) or pan-drug resistance (PDR) were predictors of increased mortality. The study concluded that patients with carbapenem-resistant pneumonia, regardless of additional resistance to polymyxins, experienced higher mortality rates.

Yan Zuo et al.

Summary: This study identified risk factors for CRKP infection in patients with hospital-acquired pneumonia, with prior central venous catheter use, sputum suction, continuous renal replacement therapy, and exposure to fluroquinolones being independent factors. It also found that treatment failure and use of fluroquinolones were associated with mortality and effective treatment for CRKP infection, respectively. Additionally, the study highlighted the prevalence of KPC-2 production in CRKP strains and the impact of ST11 on resistance and mortality rates.

Summary: This study found that prior exposure to carbapenems, longer hospital stay, and the presence of liver cirrhosis predicted CRKP infection. CRKP isolates were less susceptible to antibiotics compared to CSKP isolates, and CRKP infection was associated with significantly lower 14-day survival rates. Ceftazidime/avibactam may be a useful therapeutic option for infections caused by CRKP strains that are susceptible in vitro.

Huijuan Zhang et al.

Summary: The study identified independent risk factors for nosocomial CRKP infections including exposure to antibiotics, carbapenems, and fluoroquinolones, as well as the presence of a nasogastric tube. Patients infected with CRKP had higher 30-day and in-hospital mortality rates, while higher creatinine levels, shock, and co-infection with other resistant bacteria were independent predictors of in-hospital mortality in CRKP-infected patients.
