Incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) and its impact on patient outcomes among adult hospitalized patients with carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative infections who received targeted treatment with a newer β-lactam or β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor-, polymyxin- or aminoglycoside-containing regimen.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Limited comparative data exist on acute kidney injury (AKI) risk and AKI-associated outcomes in hospitalized patients with carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative infections (CR-GNIs) treated with a newer β-lactam/β-lactam-β-lactamase inhibitor (BL/BL-BLI)-, polymyxin (PB)- or aminoglycoside (AG)-containing regimen. This study quantified the risk of AKI and AKI-related outcomes among patients with CR-GNIs treated with a newer BL/BL-BLI-, PB- or AG-containing regimen.

Methods

A multicentre, retrospective, observational study was performed (2016-20). The study included adult hospitalized patients with (i) baseline estimated glomerular filtration rates ≥30 mL/min/1.73 m2; (ii) CR-GN pneumonia, complicated urinary tract infection or bloodstream infection; and (iii) receipt
