BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Inappropriate initial antimicrobial therapy has been associated with high mortality in patients with gram-negative bacilli bloodstream infections during febrile neutropenia following chemotherapy for hematological malignancies. The aim of this study is to determine this association in our hospital.
METHODS: A single center, retrospective, cohort study of bloodstream infection due to gram-negative bacilli and febrile neutropenia was conducted. Clinical characteristics, microbiological etiology, antimicrobial resistance profile, empirical and targeted antibiotic therapy, intensive care unit admission, persistent bacteremia and mortality were analyzed.
RESULTS: Of the 171 episodes of bloodstream infection due to gram-negative bacilli, empirical antimicrobial therapy was inappropriate in 43 episodes (25.1 %). There was a significant difference in mortality at 7 and 30 days between patients who received appropriate versus inappropriate empirical treatment (4.6 % versus 13.9 %, p = 0.04; 15.6 % versus 32.5 %, p = 0.016). Inappropriate empirical treatment (RR, 2.97 [95 % CI, 1.01-8.74]), shock at the time of febrile neutropenia diagnosis (RR, 6.5 [95 % CI, 1.83-23.05]) carbapenem-resistant microorganism (RR, 3.73 [95 % CI, 1.14-12.24]) and persistent bacteremia (RR, 84.6 [95 % CI, 11.3-629.4]) were associated with an increased mortality at 7 and 30 days. In the multivariate analysis, shock (RR, 4.85 [95 % CI, 2.10-11.65]) was independently associated with increased 30-day mortality, but inappropriate empirical antimicrobial therapy was not an independent prognostic determinant (RR, 1.66 [0.53-4.82]).
CONCLUSION: Shock at the time of febrile neutropenia diagnosis contributes to mortality in patients with gram-negative bacilli bloodstream infection, in this scenario, appropriate empirical antimicrobial therapy should be encouraged.
