Klīniski nozīmīgas bakteriēmijas Rīgas multidisciplinārā slimnīcā
2020
Asinsrites infekcijas – bakteriēmijas globāli atzītas par vienu no galvenajiem iemesliem, kas ietekmē gan saslimstību, gan mirstību, un to incidence pieaug. Joprojām paliek neskaidrs, kas ietekmē dinamisku bakteriēmiju pieaugumu – izmaiņas patogēnsspecifiskā transmisijā, virulencē vai rezistencē, novecojusi populācija vai pārmērīgi kompleksa medicīnas aprūpe vai visu faktoru kombinācija. Viena no iespējām ir baktērijas adaptīvie atbildes mehānismi – antimikrobiālās rezistences veidošanās.
Predicting resistant etiology in hospitalized patients with blood cultures positive for Gram-negative bacilli
2018
Abstract Objective To develop a risk-scoring tool to predict multidrug-resistant (MDR) etiology in patients with bloodstream infections (BSI) caused by Gram-negative bacilli (GNB). Methods A prospective multicenter study analyzed patients with BSI hospitalized in 31 Internal Medicine wards in Italy from March 2012 to December 2012. Patients with BSI caused by MDR-GNB (non-susceptible to at least one agent in three antimicrobial categories) were compared to those with BSI due to susceptible GNB. A logistic regression to identify predictive factors of MDR-GNB was performed and the odds ratio (OR) were calculated. A score to predict the risk of MDR was developed. Results Of 533 BSI episodes, 2…

Bloodstream Infections in Hospitalized Patients with COVID-19: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
2021
Background: Little is known about the occurrence of bloodstream infections in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 and the related clinical consequences. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to estimate the pooled occurrence of BSIs among hospitalized patients with COVID-19 and mortality of this patient population. Methods: A systematic search was performed on PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science from inception to 19 April 2021. The primary outcome was the occurrence of BSIs among hospitalized patients with COVID-19. The secondary outcome was mortality at the longest available follow-up. Results: Forty-six studies met the inclusion criteria, with a total of 42,694 patients e…

The case-fatality rate associated with BSIs in patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) reaches 35%–50%. The emergence and diffusi…
