Efficacy and safety of high-dose daptomycin for complicated Gram-positive infections
• Single-centre retrospective study (2009-2012): N=72 pts (median age: 67 yr) with severe/complicated infections caused by staphylococci/enterococci
• Pts treated with high-dose daptomycin (>6 mg/kg) 1x/day as short infusion (renal insufficiency: dosing interval prolonged to 48h)
• Median treatment duration: 17 days (range: 5-89 days)
• Median follow-up: 21 months (range: 0 days- 3.5 yr)

Efficacy: Clinical cure: 64 pts (89%)
Safety•Death during hospital stay: 5 pts (7%)
•All AEs resolved after discontinuation of daptomycin
•No correlation between daily or cumulative daptomycin dose and occurrence or severity of AEs
Efficacy and safety of high-dose daptomycin for complicated Gram-positive infections
High-dose daptomycin seems to be highly efficacious for treatment of complicated Gram-pos. infections, but may also cause severe AEs

Impact of selective oropharyngeal/digestive tract decontamination (SOD/SDD) on antimicrobial resistance in intensive care units (ICUs)
Use of SOD or SDD does not seem to increase resistance over time in ICUs. Resistance rates do not seem to differ between ICUs using
SOD, SDD or SC, except for resistance to colistin
Houben AJM. ECCMID 2013 abs. O344
• Average resistance rate per 100 beds per yr for gram-neg. bacteria:– All antimicrobial agents: decreasing time trend in rate of resistant
isolates for SOD, SDD and standard of care (SC) – Tobramycin, ciprofloxacin, ceftazidime, cefotaxime/ceftriaxone:
2008-2011: no significant ≠ between SOD, SDD and SC
– Colistin:• 2008-2011:
– SOD: 2.2x higher risk of resistance than SC(RR: 2.2; 95% CI: 1.4-3.5)
– SDD: 1.5x higher risk of resistance than SC(RR: 1.5; 95% CI: 1.0-2.4)
• 2011 only: no significant ≠ between SOD, SDD and SC

• Multi-centre prospective observational study (Greece; 12 intensive care units (ICUs); 2010-2012)
• N=48 critically ill pts suffering from serious, microbiologically documented infections with XDR and PDR (but fosfomycin-susceptible) Gram-negative strains; treated with fosfomycin
• Fosfomycin treatment regimen:
– 6 g iv 2h infusion every 6h

Efficacy of fosfomycin in infections caused by extensively drug-resistant (XDR) and pan-drug-resistant (PDR) Gram-negative pathogens in critically ill ICU patients
As fosfomycin seems to have a considerable efficacy and acceptable safety, and development of resistance occurs infrequently, it may be
useful for treatment of PDR and XDR infections in critically ill pts

Impact of colistin-induced nephrotoxicity on mortality in patients with extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Acinetobacter baumannii (Acb) infections
Baseline renal dysfunction seems to be an independent predictor of increased hospital mortality in pts with XDR Acb infections treated
with colistin, but not of colistin-induced renal toxicity

Hospital mortality among pts with renal replacement therapy at baseline: 69.4%
• Multivariable analysis (adjusted for heart failure, diabetes mellitus, ischaemic heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease):

Impact of azithromycin on risk of cardiovascular (CV) death
• Retrospective cohort study (Tennessee Medicaid cohort; 1992-2006) in pts (30-74 yr) who had been prescribed azithromycin (excluding pts who had life-threatening non-CV illness, diagnosis of drug abuse, who were hospitalisated in prior 30 days or resided in nursing home during previous year)
• Study group: Azithromycin: N=347,795 prescriptions*
• Control groups:– No antibiotics: N=1,391,180 propensity-score-matched control periods
(of similar length to the courses of antibiotic therapy)
– Amoxicillin: N=1,348,672 prescriptions
• Primary endpoints:
– CV death
– Death from any cause
• Most common indications for azithromycin/amoxicillin prescription: infections of ear, nose, throat, bronchitis (62/63%)
• Amoxicillin vs no antibiotics: no significant ≠ in risk of (CV) death

Predictors of mortality in bloodstream infections caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae (KPC-Kp) during ICU stay
Septic shock, resistance to GENT/CS/TIG, high SAPS II score at onset and high age may predict higher 30-day mortality after KPC-Kp BSI,
while combination therapy may predict lower mortality

Predictors of colonisation by Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae (KPC-Kp) resistant to colistin (CS) during ICU stay
The high rate of colonisation of ICU pts by KPC-Kp resistant to colistin warrants cautiousness about the surveillance of CS-treated pts, in
order to avoid patient-patient transmission via the staff

Impact of chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) patient bathing on hospital-acquired and healthcare-associated infections
Study 2•188,859 patient-days; 68,302 CHG baths
•Adherence to CHG bathing: adult critical care units: 90% > other units: 57.7%
•No consistent effect of CHG bathing on other healthcare-associated infections
•No adverse events related to CHG bathing reported
Patient bathing with CHG not only reduces the risk of MDROs and hospital-acquired bloodstream infections in ICU populations, but
may also reduce the risk of CDI in a broad range of hospitalised pts
