Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of appropriate combination therapy on mortality of patients with bloodstream infections due to carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (INCREMENT): a retrospective cohort study

Belén Gutiérrez-Gutiérrez, +93 more
TL;DR: Patients with BSIs due to CPE should receive active therapy as soon as they are diagnosed, and monotherapy should be considered for those in the low-mortality-score stratum.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Predictive Model of Mortality in Patients With Bloodstream Infections due to Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae

Belén Gutiérrez-Gutiérrez, +86 more
TL;DR: A validated score predictive of early mortality in patients with BSIs due to CPE was developed and exhibited an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development and validation of the INCREMENT-ESBL predictive score for mortality in patients with bloodstream infections due to extended-spectrum-β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae

TL;DR: An easy-to-collect predictive scoring model for all-cause 30 day mortality useful for identifying patients at high and low risk of mortality is developed and validated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Empiric Therapy With Carbapenem-Sparing Regimens for Bloodstream Infections due to Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae: Results From the INCREMENT Cohort.

Zaira R. Palacios-Baena, +85 more
TL;DR: It was unable to show that empiric treatment with OAD was associated with a worse outcome compared with carbapenems, but information allows more options to be considered for empiric therapy, at least for some patients, depending on local susceptibility patterns of ESBL-E.
