| الوصف: | Background Unlike enterococcal native and prosthetic valve infective endocarditis (IE), enterococcal CIED infections are not well described. Methods Data from the Multicenter Electrophysiologic Device Infection Collaboration (MEDIC), a prospective, observational, multinational cohort study of CIED infections, were used to provide a descriptive analysis of adult patients with CIED infections due to enterococcal species. Results Of 433 patients, 21 (4.8%) were diagnosed with enterococcal CIED infection. Specific data on enterococcal species and antimicrobial susceptibilities were not recorded. The mean age was 70.8 years. No patient had previous CIED infection. Twelve patients (57%) had permanent pacemakers, 5 (24%) had implantable cardioverter defibrillators, and 4 (19%) had biventricular devices. Among the 21 infections, 3 (14%) were categorized as CIED-related bloodstream infections and 18 (86%) as IE; no patient had isolated pocket infection. Of the IE cases, four were valvular IE, eight were lead IE, and six were both. Fourteen cases of IE (78%) were definite by the modified Duke criteria. Median time from last device procedure to infection was 510 days (range 37–2,952 days). The most common presenting symptom was fever (48%); five patients (24%) exhibited local signs of pocket infection. All 21 patients underwent TEE with vegetations demonstrated in 17 (81%). Blood cultures grew enterococci from all patients. The most common antimicrobial regimen was a penicillin plus aminoglycoside (38%); two patients (9.5%) received ampicillin + ceftriaxone. Antibiotics were given for a median of 43 days. Only 14 patients (67%) had complete device removal; the seven patients retaining their device were judged to be at high risk for extraction. There was one death during the index hospital stay with four additional patients dying over the 6 months after therapy (overall mortality 24%); two of the seven patients retaining their CIED died. Conclusion Enterococci caused 4.8% of all CIED infections in our cohort. Most ... |
