BACKGROUND: Mortality rates from Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia are high and have only modestly improved in recent decades. We compared the efficacies of a β-lactam in combination with daptomycin (BL/D-C) and β-lactam monotherapy (BL-M) in improving clinical outcomes in methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) bacteremia.

METHODS: A retrospective cohort study of MSSA bacteremia was performed in a tertiary hospital from January 2011 to December 2017. Patients receiving BL/D-C and BL-M were compared to assess 7-, 30-, and 90-day mortality rates. A 1:2 propensity score matching analysis was performed. Differences were assessed using Cox regression models.

RESULTS: Of the 514 patients with MSSA bacteremia, 164 were excluded as they had received combination therapies other than BL/D-C, had pneumonia, or died within 48 hours of admission. Of the remaining 350 patients, 136 and 214 received BL/D-C and BL-M, respectively. BL/D-C patients had higher Pitt scores and persistent bacteremia more often than BL-M patients. In the raw analysis, there were no differences in mortality rates between groups. After propensity score matching, there were no significant differences between the BL/D-C (110 patients) and BL-M (168 patients) groups for all-cause mortality rates at 7 days (8.18% vs 7.74%; P = 1.000), 30 days (17.3% vs 16.1%; P = .922), and 90 days (22.7% vs 23.2%; P = 1.000), even in a subanalysis of patients with high-risk source of infection and in a subgroup excluding catheter-related bacteremia.

CONCLUSIONS: BL/D-C failed to reduce mortality rates in patients with MSSA bacteremia. Treatment strategies to improve survival in MSSA bacteremia are urgently needed.
