The incidence of Gram-negative bacteraemia is rising globally and remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality for hospitalized patients. Enterobacterales, particularly Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, are the predominant pathogens isolated from blood, overtaking Staphylococcus aureus as the major cause of hospital-acquired and commu...
Study design, sites and patient population
Medical records of patients with K. pneumoniae infections from 1 January to 31 December 2016 were reviewed in three public acute care hospitals in Singapore: the 1200 bed National University Hospital (NUH), the 1500 bed Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH) and the 1700 bed Singapore General Hospital (SGH). Only bacteraemia patients infected with cefazolin- and/or ceftriaxone-susceptible K. pneumoniae and definitively treated with either IV cefazolin or IV ceftriaxone were enrolled. The NUH microbiol...
Definitions
Empirical therapy comprised any antibiotics administered up to 2 days prior to the time of index positive blood culture report before availability of antibiotic susceptibility. Definitive therapies were antibiotics prescribed to treat the bacteraemia after antibiotic susceptibility was available to the clinician. Source of infection and metastatic complication sites were determined based on clinical judgement and guided by guidelines of the CDC National Healthcare Safety Network.18–21 Wheneve...
Statistical analyses
Categorical variables were analysed as absolute numbers and relative frequencies. Continuous variables were analysed as median and IQR. In bivariate analysis, categorical variables were compared using Pearson’s χ2 test or Fisher’s exact test, whereas continuous variables were compared using Mann–Whitney U-test. To address the non-randomized treatment assignment of antibiotics, we calculated the propensity score with treatment using cefazolin versus ceftriaxone as the binary outcome and the fo...
A total of 917 patients infected with K. pneumoniae were screened, of which 633 (69.0%) failed screening (Figure 1). Two hundred and eighty-four consecutive unique episodes of monomicrobial bacteraemia with cefazolin- and/or ceftriaxone-susceptible K. pneumoniae were eligible for analysis. Demographics and baseline clinical characteristics of the s...
There is considerable variation in clinical practice for treatment of infections caused by antibiotic-susceptible K. pneumoniae. Evidence derived from observational studies is limited and conflicting. Some clinicians do not recommend cefazolin for treatment of KLA,24 whereas others consider cefazolin a useful alternative to third-generation cephalo...
