Prevalence and Mortality of Infective Endocarditis in Community-Acquired and Healthcare-Associated Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia: A Danish Nationwide Registry-Based Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT: Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (SAB) can be community-acquired or healthcare-associated, and prior small studies have suggested that this mode of acquisition impacts the subsequent prevalence of infective endocarditis (IE) and patient outcomes. First-time SAB was identified from 2010 to 2018 using Danish nationwide registries and categorized into community-acquired (no healthcare contact within 30 days) or healthcare-associated (SAB >48 hours of hospital admission, hospitalization within 30 days, or outpatient hemodialysis). Prevalence of IE (defined from hospital codes) was compared between groups using multivariable adjusted logistic regression analysis. One-year mortality of S aureus IE (SAIE) was compared between groups using multivariable adjusted Cox proportional hazard analysis. We identified 5549 patients with community-acquired SAB and 7491 with healthcare-associated SAB. The prevalence of IE was 12.1% for community-acquired and 6.6% for healthcare-associated SAB. Community-acquired SAB was associated with a higher odds of IE as compared with healthcare-associated SAB (odds ratio, 2.12 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 1.86-2.41]). No difference in mortality was observed with 0-40 days of follow-up for community-acquired SAIE as compared with healthcare-associated SAIE (HR, 1.07 [95% CI, .83-1.37]), while with 41-365 days of follow-up, community-acquired SAIE was associated with a lower mortality (HR, 0.71 [95% CI, .53-.95]). Community-acquired SAB was associated with twice the odds for IE, as compared with healthcare-associated SAB. We identified no significant difference in short-term mortality between community-acquired and healthcare-associated SAIE. Beyond 40 days of survival, community-acquired SAIE was associated with a lower mortality.

Project description:ImportanceInfective endocarditis (IE) caused by Staphylococcus aureus is associated with high mortality, approximately 20% to 30%, mostly in the first month, with no improvement in recent decades. Current opinion is that antistaphylococcal penicillin and cefazolin are equally effective in treating methicillin-susceptible S aureus (MSSA) IE, and both are recommended as possible first-line treatments. Most MSSA strains carry the β-lactamase blaZ gene, and some blaZ-positive strains exhibit an inoculum effect, meaning increased minimum inhibitory concentrations at high inoculum. This reduced susceptibility to an antibiotic at high bacterial inoculum may be particularly relevant in IE, where vegetations have very high bacterial densities.ObjectiveTo evaluate the association between phenotypic characteristics of S aureus isolates, β-lactam used, and outcome in patients with MSSA IE.Design, settings, and participantsThis retrospective case series included MSSA cases treated at 3 French university hospitals between February 2016 and February 2022. The study included patients who had clinical isolates available and had definite or possible S aureus IE that involved native or prosthetic valves. Data were analyzed from July 2023 to June 2024.Main outcomes and measuresMSSA isolates were tested for the presence of blaZ and for inoculum effects to cefazolin and oxacillin. The association between first-month mortality and the β-lactam used, the presence of blaZ, and the presence of an inoculum effect to the treatment received was evaluated.ResultsThis study included 216 patients with MSSA IE (median [IQR] age, 65 [49-73] years; 152 [70.4%] male) who were treated with antistaphylococcal penicillin (139 [64.4%]) or cefazolin (77 [35.6%]). One-month mortality of left-sided IE was 44 of 180 patients (24.4%), with no overall difference between patients treated with antistaphylococcal penicillin or cefazolin. However, 1-month mortality was higher in patients infected with blaZ-positive strains than with blaZ-negative strains (38 of 129 [29.5%] vs 6 of 51 [11.8%]; P = .01), and with strains with an inoculum effect to the β-lactam received than with strains without an inoculum effect (25 of 62 [40.3%] vs 13 of 67 [19.4%]; P = .005). On multivariable analysis, the presence of an inoculum effect was independently associated with first-month mortality (HR, 2.84; 95% CI, 1.28-6.30; P = .01).Conclusions and relevanceIn this case series of MSSA IE, the presence of an inoculum effect to the β-lactam received was a risk factor for death in the first month. Phenotyping MSSA isolates for inoculum effect may guide β-lactam choice and improve outcomes.
