BACKGROUND: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (MDR-GNB) present increasing therapeutic challenges, especially in regions with limited access to novel β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitors. Colistin remains a salvage therapy in such cases; however, data describing its real-world efficacy and nephrotoxicity in urinary infections are limited.
METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adult patients who received intravenous colistin (colistimethate sodium) for culture-confirmed UTIs at a tertiary academic medical center in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The primary outcome was colistin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI), defined as an increase in serum creatinine of ≥26 µmol/L from baseline per the AKIN creatinine criterion. Secondary outcomes included microbiologic failure, clinical failure, and in-hospital mortality. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of AKI.
RESULTS: Among 102 patients, the median age was 80 years (IQR, 72-84), and 46% were male. Klebsiella pneumoniae (44.9%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (20.4%) were the most common pathogens. Over half (52%) were exposed to concomitant nephrotoxic agents. Colistin-induced AKI occurred in 15 patients (14.7%). Chronic kidney disease was more frequent among those who developed AKI (73% vs. 26%, p<0.001); however, no independent predictors were identified in multivariable analysis. In a sensitivity analysis using CKD as a binary covariate, CKD was independently associated with AKI (adjusted OR 19.17; 95% CI, 3.03-121.30; p=0.002). Clinical failure occurred in 12.7% and microbiologic failure in 2.9% of patients.
CONCLUSION: In this cohort of patients with MDR-GNB UTIs, intravenous colistin was associated with favorable clinical and microbiological outcomes. The observed incidence of AKI was lower than previously reported in the literature, though this should be interpreted cautiously given the small number of events and the high prevalence of baseline renal impairment and nephrotoxic co-exposures.
