To predict the prognosis of hospitalized adults with carbapenem-nonsusceptible Acinetobacter baumanii (CRAB) or Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) infections undergoing inappropriate antibiotic therapies. Between January 1, 2016, and June 30, 2017, medical records of consecutive hospitalized adults at Yuan’s General Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. The Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS), quick Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA), and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) of each patient were calculated. The survival rates of patients with CRPA and CRAB infections, stratified by MEWS, qSOFA, and CCI scores, were compared. A total of 76 non-duplicate subjects with either CRAB or CRPA infections were identified; 57 patients had CRAB infections (average age 70.9 years, interquartile range [IQR] 64.6–79.5 years); 19 had CRPA infections (71.9 years, IQR 60.4–82.8 years). Most of CRPA and CRAB were yielded from respiratory tract secretions samples (81.6%). The mortality rates for patients with CRPA and CRAB infections were 31.6 and 38.6%, respectively. Patients with CRAB infections of MEWS score≥6 exhibited a statistically significant lower survival rate than those with MEWS score≤1. MEWS measurement offers a prognostic evaluation in the setting of hospitalized patients with CRAB infections. |
