BACKGROUND: Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an important nosocomial pathogen. Bacteraemia is associated with significant morbidity, despite antibiotic therapy. Optimal treatment strategies for Stenotrophomonas maltophilia bacteraemia remain ill-defined. Thus, we retrospectively examined the clinical presentation, microbiological characteristics, treatment options to identify risk factors for mortality.
METHODS: We performed a retrospective single-centre analysis of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia bacteraemia from 1 Jan 2012-30 Jun 2024. Data on the clinical presentation, source of infection, microbiological characteristics, treatment strategies and clinical outcomes were tabulated. Risk factors for in-hospital all-cause mortality were identified by appropriate univariate and multivariable analyses.
RESULTS: There were 197 bacteraemia episodes. In-hospital mortality was 41.6 % (n = 82), and did not change significantly over the years. Patients who died were more likely to have prior carbapenem exposure (81.7 % vs 53.0 %, p < 0.001), presentation in an intensive care (ICU) setting (73.2 % vs 15.7 %, p < 0.001), and had a longer duration of fever (8.5 ± 2.5 vs 3.0 ± 3.8 days, p < 0.001). Microbiological isolation from additional sites other than the blood (e.g. sputum culture positivity) also correlated with mortality (39.0 % vs 7.8 %, p < 0.001). Over time, proportion of isolates resistant to fluoroquinolones increased. An initial antimicrobial choice containing trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole appeared to be more likely to be associated with survival. Only 13 patients (6.6 %) received dual antibiotics initially, so it was unclear if this was associated with better outcomes. On multivariable analysis, ICU onset, elevated C-reactive protein, longer duration of fever and an absence of intervention for source control remained independently associated with mortality.
CONCLUSIONS: Source control of infection may be critical in improving survival in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia bacteraemia. Future prospective studies should validate important risk factors for mortality and define optimal antimicrobial treatment strategies.
