目的:厌氧菌菌血症通常是严重预后的标志。然而,缺乏基于人口的数据。我们的目的是描述丹麦人群环境中厌氧菌血症的流行病学和30天死亡率。
方法:在这项基于人群的队列研究中,从北丹麦菌血症研究数据库中确定了1994-2019年期间所有首次发生的厌氧性菌血症.关于合并症的信息,出院诊断,并恢复了死亡率。计算30天死亡率,并进行多变量逻辑回归分析以确定死亡的危险因素。
结果:确定了1,750例厌氧菌血症事件,对应于每10万居民12.5的发病率(从1994-2014年的11.2增加到2015-2019年的17.7)。在这些事件中,三分之一是多微生物,大多数(70%)患者有一种或多种合并症.在61%的患者中,腹腔感染是菌血症的来源,而15%的人是未知的。最常分离的属是拟杆菌属(45%),梭菌(20%)和梭杆菌(6%)。总体30天的粗死亡率为27%,但是高年龄患者的发病率更高,肝脏疾病,和实体瘤。梭菌属30天死亡率的比值比(OR)为1.32,和1.27用于需氧菌的多微生物菌血症。
结论:厌氧菌血症的发生率增加,研究期间30天死亡率仍然很高。多因素影响30天死亡率,包括高年龄,肝病,实体瘤,多微生物菌血症,和梭菌菌血症。
OBJECTIVE: Bacteremia with anaerobic bacteria is generally a marker of severe prognosis. However, population-based data are lacking. Our aim was to describe the epidemiology and the 30-day mortality rate of anaerobic bacteremia in a Danish population-based setting.
METHODS: In this population-based cohort study, all first-time episodes of anaerobic bacteremia from the North Denmark Bacteremia Research Database during 1994-2019 were identified. Information on comorbidities, discharge diagnoses, and mortality was retrieved. 30-day mortality rates were calculated and a multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify risk factors for death was performed.
RESULTS: 1,750 incident episodes with anaerobic bacteremia were identified, corresponding to an incidence of 12.5 per 100,000 inhabitants (increasing from 11.2 in 1994-2014 to 17.7 in 2015-2019). Of these episodes, a third were polymicrobial, and the majority (70%) of patients had one or more comorbid conditions. Abdominal infection was the source of bacteremia in 61% of patients, while it was unknown for 15%. The most frequently isolated genera were Bacteroides (45%), Clostridium (20%) and Fusobacterium (6%). The overall crude 30-day mortality rate was 27%, but rates were even higher for patients of high age, with liver disease, and solid tumors. The odds ratio (OR) for 30-day mortality was 1.32 for Clostridium species, and 1.27 for polymicrobial bacteremia with aerobic bacteria.
CONCLUSIONS: The incidence rate of anaerobic bacteremia increased, and the 30-day mortality rate remained high during the study period. Multiple factors influence on 30-day mortality rates, including high age, liver disease, solid tumor, polymicrobial bacteremia, and bacteremia with Clostridium species.
