120. The Impact of Early Central Venous Catheter Removal in the Management of Enterococcus Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections
BACKGROUND: There has been a rise in Enterococcus species Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections (CLABSI) ranking as the third overall causative organism according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report issued in 2014.

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: There has been a rise in Enterococcus species Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections (CLABSI) ranking as the third overall causative organism according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report issued in 2014. Central Venous Catheter (CVC) management including the need and timing of CVC removal is not well defined for enterococcus bacteremia (EB) in the 2009 Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) management guidelines given the paucity of studies addressing CVC management. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective chart review on 543 patients diagnosed with EB between 2010 and 2018. We excluded patients without an indwelling CVC and those with mucosal barrier injury (MBI). We further evaluated 90 patients with EB that met the CDC definition for CLABSI without MBI or the IDSA definition for catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) and 90 patients with an indwelling CVC in place with documented non-CLABSI with another source. RESULTS: Early CVC removal (within 3 days of EB) was significantly higher in the CLABSI without MBI/CRBSI group compared with the non-CLABSI (43% vs. 27%; P = 0.02). Microbiological eradication associated with early CVC removal within 3 days of EB was significantly higher in the CLABSI without MBI/CRBSI group compared with the non-CLABSI (78% vs. 48%; P = 0.016). Complications were lower in the CLABSI without MBI/CRBSI compared with the non-CLABSI group (0% vs. 18%; P = 0.017). Defervescence, mortality (all-cause and infection-related mortality) and relapse were similar in both groups. Within each group, the outcome was similar irrespective of CVC management (removal within 3 days vs. retention). CONCLUSION: In cases of EB, early CVC removal within 3 days of bacteremia is associated with a favorable outcome in the CLABSI without MBI/CRBSI group compared with the non-CLABSI group.
