212. Outcomes of Adults with Uncomplicated Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia Receiving Short-Course Vs. Prolonged-Course Antibiotic Therapy in a Multicenter, Propensity Score–Matched Cohort
Open Forum Infectious Diseases(2019)
摘要
Abstract Background The recommended duration of antibiotic treatment for uncomplicated Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infections is 14 days. We compared the outcomes of patients receiving short-course (6–10 days) vs. prolonged-course (11–16 days) antibiotic therapy for S. aureus bacteremia (SAB). Methods 30-day outcome of patients with penicillin (PSSAB, n = 202)) or methicillin-susceptible SAB (MSSAB, n = 203) treated with in vitro active therapy in the range of 6–16 days was analyzed using pooled data from two previously published, observational studies. Individuals were matched 1:1 by nearest neighbor propensity score matching without replacement. Regression analysis was performed to estimate the risk of all-cause mortality within 30 days after the end of antibiotic treatment. Eligible individuals had to have >1 day of follow-up after discontinuation of antimicrobials. Individuals with a diagnosis of endocarditis, bone infection, meningitis or pneumonia were excluded. Results There were 107 well-balanced matched pairs; 58 in the PSSAB and 39 in the MSSAB cohort. For PSSAB, the median duration of therapy was 8 (interquartile range [IQR], 7–10) in the short-course group and 12 days (IQR, 10–13) in the prolonged-course group. For the MSSAB cohort, these numbers were 9 days (IQR, 7–10) and 14 days (IQR, 13–16 days), respectively. No difference in mortality between short-course and prolonged-course treatment was observed (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.74; 95% confidence interval [CI], .23–2.41) and 1.14; 95% CI, 0.31–4.20), respectively for PSSAB and MSSAB. Conclusion Short courses of antibiotic therapy yielded similar clinical outcomes as prolonged courses of antibiotic therapy for S. aureus bacteremia. The findings warrant a randomized clinical trial to study the safety and efficacy of shortened antimicrobial therapy for the treatment of uncomplicated SAB.
