초록

목적: 장내세균에서 3세대 cephalosporin 계열 항생제에 내성을 나타내는 주된 내성 기전은 extended spectrum β-lactamase(ESBL)를 생성하는 것이다. ESBL 생성 장내세균은 ESBL 생성균이라고 하더라도 piperacillin/tazobactam 감수성 균인 경우 piperacillin/tazobactam을 사용해 볼 수 있으며 후향적 연구에서 carbapenem 계열 항생제를 투여한 경우에 비해 열등하지 않은 치료 효과가 보고된 바 있다. 하지만 미국감염학회 2023년 지침에서는 ESBL 생성 그람음성균 감염에서 carbapenem 계열 항생제를 권고하고 piperacillin/tazobactam 감수성인 그람음성균이더라도 carbapenem 계열 항생제를 투여하도록 하고 있다. 하지만 carbapenem 내성 장내세균의 증가 등으로 비 carbapenem 계열의 항생제들의 사용 필요성에 대한 평가는 아직도 필요한 상황이다. 이에 제주대학교병원의 ESBL 생성 장내세균속 균혈증 환자들의 carbapenem과 비 carbapenem 계열 항생제의 치료 효과를 보고한다. 방법: 2021년 1월부터 12월까지 527명의 성인 장내세균속 균혈증 환자들 중에서 ESBL 생성 장내세균속 환자 152명을 대상으로 후향적 자료를 수집하고 3개월 이내 장내세균 감염이 있었던 환자들과 30일 후 추적 관찰을 하지 못한 환자들을 제외하고 분석하였다. 결과: 총 118명의 ESBL 생성 장내세균속 균혈증 환자들중에서 54명의 환자가 확정적 항생제로 비 carbapenem 계열 항생제로 치료하였고 64명의 환자가 carbapenem 계열 항생제로 치료하였다. Kaplan-Meier 생존 분석 방법으로 30일 치료 실패율과 사망률을 분석한 결과 30일 치료 실패율은 비 carbapenem군이 16.7%, carbapenem군이 18.8%로 양 군 간의 유의한 차이는 없었다(p = 0.65). 30일 사망률은 비 carbapenem 계열군이 14.8%, carbapenem 계열군이 17.2%로 양 군 간의 유의한 차이는 없었다(p = 0.63). 전체 환자들 중에서 치료 실패한 환자들을 다변량 로지스틱 회귀 분석한 결과에서 요로 감염 외 감염과 이전 30일 이내 항생제 사용력이 있는 경우 치료 실패의 위험인자로 확인되었다. 결론: ESBL 생성 장내세균속 균혈증 환자들은 국내에서 확정적 항생제로 비 carbapenem 계열의 항생제를 사용해 볼수 있으나 중증 환자들을 포함한 다기관, 전향적 후속 연구들이 필요하다.

Background/Aims: Carbapenems are recommended for treating bacteremia caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E). However, this has resulted in a significant rise in the utilization of carbapenems in cases of ESBL-E infection. We evaluated the clinical outcomes of patients with ESBL-E bacteremia treated with non-carbapenem antimicrobials. Methods: We conducted a retrospective case-control study of a cohort of patients with documented ESBL-E bacteremia from January 2021 to December 2021. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether they received non-carbapenem or carbapenem therapy. The rates of treatment failure, 30-day mortality and microbiologic failure, and the durations of hospitalization and of antimicrobial therapy were compared between the two groups. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing and phenotypic identification of ESBL-E were performed using the Vitek 2 system. Results: Of 118 patients with ESBL-E bacteremia, 54 received non-carbapenem drugs (non-carbapenem group [NCG]) and 64 received carbapenems (carbapenem group [CG]). Treatment failure at 30 days occurred in 16.7% of the patients in the NCG and in 18.8% in the CG (p = 0.65). The 30-day mortality rate was 14.8% in the NCG and 17.2% in the CG (p = 0.63). Extra-urinary tract infection and prior antimicrobial therapy within 30 days were risk factors for treatment failure in patients with ESBL-E bacteremia. The clinical outcomes did not differ significantly between the two groups, challenging the prevailing preference for carbapenems in the treatment of ESBL-E bacteremia. Conclusions: Non-carbapenem antimicrobials such as piperacillin/tazobactam are recommended for patients with mild ESBL-E bacteremia in South Korea.
