Bacterial Coinfections Increase Mortality of Severely Ill COVID-19 Patients in Saudi Arabia

Abdulaziz Alqahtani et al.

Summary: This study retrospectively investigated the effects of bacterial coinfections on COVID-19 patients in Saudi Arabia. The results showed that patients coinfected with SARS-CoV-2 and bacteria had a longer hospital stay and higher mortality rates compared to those infected with SARS-CoV-2 only.

Summary: The frequency of secondary infections and resistance conditions in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 hospitalized in the intensive care unit were examined. Results showed that 33.3% of patients had bacterial reproduction in at least one sample, with a 21% rate of respiratory tract infection and/or bloodstream infection.

COVID-19 Clinical Profiles and Fatality Rates in Hospitalized Patients Reveal Case Aggravation and Selective Co-Infection by Limited Gram-Negative Bacteria

Kamaleldin B. Said et al.

Summary: Bacterial co-infections can worsen COVID-19 disease, and recognizing the presence of other pathogens is crucial. This study found that multiple bacterial species co-infected COVID-19 patients and were associated with higher mortality rates. The dominant co-infecting pathogens were multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae, extremely drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli, and extremely drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Co-infections were more common in older age groups and have significant clinical implications for successful COVID-19 therapies, especially in geriatric management.

Secondary Bacterial Infection and Clinical Characteristics in Patients With COVID-19 Admitted to Two Intensive Care Units of an Academic Hospital in Iran During the First Wave of the Pandemic

Samaneh Pourajam et al.

Summary: This study found that secondary bacterial infection is present in COVID-19 patients with severe pneumonia, and these bacterial strains are often resistant to antibiotics. Patients with superinfections have a higher mortality rate, highlighting the importance of strict infection control measures and antimicrobial stewardship during a pandemic.

Bacterial Coinfection and Antibiotic Resistance Profiles among Hospitalised COVID-19 Patients

Summary: This study investigated the prevalence of bacterial coinfections among hospitalized COVID-19 patients, revealing a higher rate in ICU patients and significant antibiotic resistance. The alarming correlation between multi-drug resistant bacterial coinfections and admission to the ICU calls for more attention and precaution to limit the spread of resistant bacteria.

The Prevalence and Impact of Coinfection and Superinfection on the Severity and Outcome of COVID-19 Infection: An Updated Literature Review

Samya A. Omoush et al.

Summary: Patients with COVID-19 are at higher risk of secondary infections, including bacterial coinfections. However, studies have yielded contradictory results regarding the impact of coinfection on the outcomes of COVID-19. This literature review aims to provide updated evidence on the prevalence, mechanisms, and impact of coinfection and superinfection among patients with SARS-CoV-2.

Incidence of Bacterial and Fungal Secondary Infections in COVID-19 Patients Admitted to the ICU

Afnan J. Alshrefy et al.

Summary: Secondary bacterial and fungal infections are common among COVID-19 patients admitted to the ICU, with a predominance of gram-negative bacteria and Candida species. The development of secondary infections is significantly associated with invasive mechanical ventilation. Poor clinical outcomes have been observed, including prolonged hospital and ICU stays and higher mortality.

Risk factors associated with development of coinfection in critically Ill patients with COVID-19

Erica M. Orsini et al.

Summary: This study found that critically ill patients with COVID-19 are at a higher risk of bacterial and fungal coinfections during hospitalization, with higher mortality and longer hospital stay. Vasopressor and corticosteroid use, central line and foley catheter placement were risk factors for late infection. There were high rates of drug-resistant infections.

Summary: This study identified factors associated with poor outcomes in hospitalized COVID-19 patients, including respiratory rate, systolic blood pressure, lymphocyte count, and aspartate transaminase level. The study also found that a low initial Ct value of SARS-CoV-2 PCR was a predictor for invasive mechanical ventilation.

Influenza co-infection associated with severity and mortality in COVID-19 patients

Summary: Undetected co-infections in COVID-19 patients can have severe implications, leading to increased hospitalization, varied treatment approaches, and mortality. Screening for co-infecting viruses is crucial as viral co-infections were associated with higher ICU admission and mortality rates. Influenza A H1N1 was the most commonly detected pathogen and showed a direct relationship with mortality in critically ill COVID-19 patients.

Summary: Although the incidence of microbial coinfections in COVID-19 patients is low, clinical outcomes remain poor, especially for patients requiring mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in the intensive care unit. Dominance of Gram-negative pathogens, emergence of Candida species, and prevalence of isolates harboring drug-resistance genes are concerning.
