Background UNASSIGNED
Expanding the use of temocillin could be an important weapon in the fight against antimicrobial resistance. However, EUCAST defined clinical breakpoints for a limited number of species and only for urinary tract infections (UTI), including urosepsis but excluding severe sepsis and septic shock. Moreover, a dosage of 2 g q8h is advised in most cases.
Objectives UNASSIGNED
Evaluation of temocillin use for the treatment of bacteraemia, correlating clinical and microbiological outcomes with infection site, infection severity, temocillin dosage, Enterobacterales species and MIC.
Patients and methods UNASSIGNED
All adult patients with blood cultures positive for temocillin-susceptible Enterobacterales and treated with temocillin for ≥72 h from June 2018 until June 2021 were considered for inclusion. The primary outcome was clinical success, defined as resolution of infection signs, no relapse of the same infection and no antibiotic switch due to insufficient clinical improvement. The secondary outcome was microbiological success.
Results UNASSIGNED
In total, 182 episodes were included [140 UTI versus 42 non-UTI, 171
Conclusions UNASSIGNED
Temocillin 2 g q12h can be successfully used for the treatment of systemic UTI. Prospective studies are needed to assess outcomes and evaluate non-inferiority compared with other broad-spectrum antibiotics in non-UTI infections, including bacteraemia.
