简要总结
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the screening for multidrug resistant bacteria in patients admitted to hospitals in Scania. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- admission rates after screening
- 30-day and one-year mortality after screening Participants will be evaluated for positive screening results with following multidrug resistant gram negative bacilli: ESBL producing Enterobacterales, Carbapenemase producing Enterobacterales, Carbapenem resistant P.aeruginosa and carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. Researchers will compare patients with positive and negative screening results to see, if the relative risks in the two groups differ in admission rates and mortality.
详细描述
Infections with multidrug resistant bacteria (MDR) cause more than one millions deaths globally according to World Health Organisation. While Scandinavia is still a low-endemic area of resistance compared to other parts of the world, such as South-Asia, South-Europe, a worrisome rise in MDR has been observed in the past decade. Of concern is particularly gram negative bacilli, e.g extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) and carbapenemase producing Enterobacterales (EPE and CPE) as well as carbapenem resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) and Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB). They can cause extremely 'difficult-to-treat' infections, while concomitantly give rise to outbreaks following dissemination in hospital settings for years. Hence patients with risk factors such as contact with health care systems outside of Scandinavia are routinely submitted to MDR screening on admission to hospitals in Scania in Sweden. Resource demanding isolation measures are upheld until negative screening results are reported.
The aim of this study is to evaluate our MDR screening in terms of the clinical course of patients with positive and negative screenings results, respectively.
Primary objective: to compare patients with positive screening results and patients with negative screening results regarding
- admission rate within a year of screening;
- occurrence rate of other MDR in clinical samples at the time of screening;
- 30-day mortality and one-year mortality.
Secondary objective:
