HEALTH CARE – ASSOCIATED STATUS The evolution of MDR pathogens as a dynamic process
HCAP: original defintion ATS / IDSA guidelines for HA, VAP and HCAP, Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2005
When HCAP = resistant pathogens, predictive values of HCAP are poor Shorr AF et al., Arch Intern Med 2008 (Zilberberg, Micek, Kollef)
22,456 pts Sub‐analysis by region found that HCAP performed poorly in European studies and in prospective/high quality studies.
New approach: Stratify risk factors New findings: Different risk factors have different importance for MDR prediction Chronic renal failure is an independent risk factor for MDR (A window of patient’s functional status) Patient’s targeted approach for empiric antibiotic therapy is possible
Curr Opin Crit Care 2012 Several platforms developed (multiplex RT-PCR, microarrays) Role as an add-on or replacement of conventional diagnostics (e. g. viral infections) Advantages: rapidity, sensitivity (positivity also in case of antibiotic exposure) Disadvatages: cost, limited number of targets
Is there anything better than Antibiotics? Infection Control Improved Infection control –Effectiveness may be limited –What is really necessary? –Hand Hygiene only? –Isolation policy? –Screening measures? –Alert systems?

Is there anything better than Antibiotics? Preventive Measures Vaccination –Available vaccines Influenza Pneumococci –Improve implementation –In development Staphylococci –A story of disappointments Pseudomonas –Ongoing Phase III trials
Is there anything better than Antibiotics? Immunomodulation Immunoglobulins/Monoclonal antibodies Encouraging results in animal models Waiting for clinical data Some Phase II/III trials ongoing
