Resumen :
INTRODUCCIÓN. El aumento de la incidencia de bacteriemias debidas a bacterias
gramnegativas es preocupante en países donde las resistencias antimicrobianas están escalando. La falta
de disponibilidad de tratamiento antimicrobiano con garantías va asociada a una mayor mortalidad. Esto

BACKGROUND. The incidence of bloodstream infections due to gram-negative bacteria is
increasing and has become a serious public health problem in countries where antimicrobial resistant
bacteria are becoming more prevalent. Inadequate antimicrobial treatment is associated with a higher
mortality. A thorough knowledge of the local epidemiology and the clinical features of the patients with
bloodstream infections in every setting is essential for the development of stewardship policies to try
and solve this problem.
METHODS. We carried out a descriptive observational study with analytical features. A
logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the factors associated with poor prognosis
(mortality and/or prolonged hospitalisation (≥ 13 days)).
RESULTS. A total of 126 blood isolates were collected over a 10-month period, in a second
level hospital. The mean age was 73 years (SD ± 15.10). The average stay was 19.65 days (SD ± 21.57)
and the mortality was 13.5%. The most frequent source of infection was the urinary tract (35.7%) and
the most common isolate, Escherichia Coli (36.5%). The existence of antibiotic resistance, admission
to ICU and a high Pitt score (>4) on admission were associated with mortality. In the multivariate
analysis, presenting with a hospital-acquired (OR 6.33; 95% CI 1.95- 620.5) or a healthcare-associated
bloodstream infection (OR 2.77; 95% CI 954-8.024) and the intra-abdominal site of infection (OR
7,138; UC 95% 1,761-28,925) were found to be independent risk factors for mortality and/or prolonged
hospitalisation. Admission to a medical (OR 0.14; 95% CI 0.017-1.262) or surgical (OR 0.045; 95% CI
0.004-0.49) ward compared to admission to the ICU was a protective factor, with no statistical
differences between the first two.
CONCLUSIONS. The existence of antibiotic resistance, admission to ICU and a high Pitt score
on admission were associated with mortality. Nosocomial and health-care related blood-stream
infections, admission to the ICU and the abdominal source were independent factors of poor prognosis
in our study population.
