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

Impact of therapeutic strategies on the prognosis of candidemia in the ICU.

TL;DR: Candidemia in ICU patients is caused by non-albicans species in 48% of cases, C. parapsilosis being the most common among these and overall mortality remains high and mainly related with host factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Initial Use of Echinocandins Does Not Negatively Influence Outcome in Candida parapsilosis Bloodstream Infection: A Propensity Score Analysis

TL;DR: The initial use of an echinocandin-based regimen does not seem to negatively influence outcome in C. parapsilosis BSI, and both Orotracheal intubation and septic shock emerged as risk factors for clinical failure, whereas early central venous catheter removal was protective.
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.
