  • Risk Factors and Prognosis of Hospital Acquired Pneumonia Caused by Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter Baumannii

    Objective To study the risk factors and prognosis of hospital acquired pneumonia( HAP)caused by carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii( CRAB) . Methods By a case-control study, the data of 44 cases of HAP caused by CRAB fromJan 2005 to Dec 2007 in Nanfang Hospital were analyzed. 66 cases of HAP caused by Carbapenem-susceptible A. baumannii ( CSAB) were selected randomly at the same time as control. Univariate analysis( T test and chi-square test) and multivariate logistic regression were used for statistics analysis. Results Univariate analysis revealed that five factors associated with the infection caused by CRAB were APACHE Ⅱ score ≥ 16, chronic pulmonary disease ( COPD/ bronchiectasis ) , imipenem/meropenem and fluoroquinolone used 15 days before isolation of CRAB, and early combination therapy of antibiotics. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified two independent factors as APACHEⅡ score ≥16( OR=6. 41, 95% CI 2. 20-18. 67) and imipenem/meropenemused 15 days before isolation of CRAB( OR =6. 33,95% CI 1. 83-21. 87) . Of 44 cases of CRAB infections, 14 patients died and 30 patients survived. Univariate analysis revealed that two factors associated with poor prognosis were organ failure and clinical pulmonary infection score( CPIS) rise after three-day treatment. According to multivariate logistic regression analysis, only CPIS rise after three-day treatment ( OR =7. 01, 95% CI 1. 23-40. 03) was an independent predictive factor. Conclusions APACHEⅡ score ≥ 16 and imipenem/meropenem used 15 days before isolation of CRAB were independent risk factors for CRAB infection. CPIS rise after three-day treatment was a predictive factor for the prognosis of CRAB infection.
