Chlorhexidine-impregnated sponge versus chlorhexidine gel dressing for short-term intravascular catheters: which one is better?

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chlorhexidine-gluconate (CHG) impregnated dressings may prevent catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI). Chlorhexidine-impregnated sponge dressings (sponge-dress) and gel dressings (gel-dress) have never been directly compared. We used the data collected for two randomized-controlled trials to perform a comparison between sponge-dress and gel-dress.

Methods

Adult critically ill patients who required short-term central venous or arterial catheter insertion were recruited. Our main analysis included only patients with CHG-impregnated dressings. The effect of gel-dress (versus sponge-dress) on major catheter-related infections (MCRI) and CRBSI was estimated using multivariate marginal Cox models. The comparative risks of dressing disruption and contact dermatitis were evaluated using logistic mix models for clustered data. An explanatory analysis compared gel-dress with standard dressings using either CHG skin disinfection or povidone iodine skin disinfection.

Results

A total of 3483 patients and 7941 catheters were observed in 16 intensive care units. Sponge-dress and gel-dress were utilized for 1953 and 2108 catheters, respectively. After adjustment for confounders, gel-dress showed similar risk for MCRI compared to sponge-dress (HR 0.80, 95% CI 0.28-2.31, p = 0.68) and CRBSI (HR 1.13, 95% CI 0.34-3.70, p = 0.85), less dressing disruptions (OR 0.72, 95% CI 0.60-0.86, p < 0.001), and more contact dermatitis (OR 3.60, 95% CI 2.51-5.15, p < 0.01). However, gel-dress increased the risk of contact dermatitis only if CHG was used for skin antisepsis (OR 1.94, 95% CI 1.38-2.71, p < 0.01).

Conclusions

We described a similar infection risk for gel-dress and sponge-dress. Gel-dress showed fewer dressing disruptions. Concomitant use of CHG for skin disinfection and CHG-impregnated dressing may significantly increase contact dermatitis.

Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to compare RNA-Seq transcriptomic data of P. aeruginosa PAO1 in response to chronic exposure of clindamycin and rifampicin eluted from antibiotic-impregnated catheters in a continuous biofilm culture condition. Methods: Transcriptomic profiles of P. aeruginosa PAO1 grown with catheters without antibiotic coating or with clindamycin/rifampicin coating were generated by deep sequencing, in quadruplicates, using Illumina NextSeq 550 sequencer with SE-75. FastQC and Trimmomatic (v0.39) were used for sequencing quality assessment. Raw read counts of the annotated genes were calculated using HTSeq-count. The log2 fold change and false discovery rate (FDR) were measured by edgeR. Genes with |log2FC| > 1.0 and FDR < 0.05 were considered as differential expression genes. Transcripts per million (TPM) was measured by Kallisto, which is an alignment free expression estimation tool. Results: P. aeruginosa PAO1 RNA sequencing using Illumina NextSeq 550 sequencer generated 5,205,190 of average number of reads with average read length of 65 bp and a mean coverage of 54X. Differentially regulated proteins of 877 in the planktonic cells were identified, 55 of which displayed up-regulation and 822 displayed down-regulation. On the other hand, 178 proteins were differentially expressed in the biofilm cells containing 152 up-regulated and 26 down-regulated. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of transcriptomes generated by RNA-seq technology after P. aeruginosa PAO1 planktonic and biofilm cells were continuously exposed to clindamycin/rifampicin-impregnated catheters. Our results show that RNA sequencing offers a comprehensive and more accurate quantitative and qualitative evaluation of mRNA content of strain PAO1 cells. We conclude that RNA-seq based transcriptome characterization would help the understanding for the mechanism of antimicrobial resistance and virulence in P. aeruginosa after exposure of antimicrobial-coated catheter.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the most common Gram-negative pathogen causing nosocomial multidrug resistant infections. It is a good biofilm producer and has the potential for contaminating medical devices. Despite the widespread use of antibacterial-impregnated catheters, little is known about the impacts of antibacterial coating on the pathogenesis of P. aeruginosa. In this study, we investigated the adaptive resistance potential of P. aeruginosa strain PAO1 in response to continuous antibiotic exposure from clindamycin/rifampicin-impregnated catheters (CR-IC). During exposure for 144 h to clindamycin and rifampicin released from CR-IC, strain PAO1 formed biofilms featuring elongated and swollen cells. There were 545 and 372 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) identified in the planktonic and biofilm cells, respectively, by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). Both Cluster of Orthologous Groups (COG) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses showed that the planktonic cells responded to the released antibiotics more actively than the biofilm cells, with metabolism and ribosomal biosynthesis-associated proteins being significantly over-expressed. Exposure to CR-IC increased the invasion capability of P. aeruginosa for Hela cells and upregulated the expression of certain groups of virulence proteins in both planktonic and biofilm cells, including the outer membrane associated (flagella, type IV pili and type III secretion system) and extracellular (pyoverdine) virulence proteins. Continuous exposure of P. aeruginosa to CR-IC also induced the overexpression of antibiotic resistance proteins, including porins, efflux pumps, translation and transcription proteins. However, these upregulations did not change phenotypic minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) during the experimental timeframe. The concerning association between CR-IC and overexpression of virulence factors in P. aeruginosa suggests the need for additional investigation to determine if it results in adverse clinical outcomes.
