Experience with daptomycin in a tertiary pediatric hospital
BACKGROUND: Vancomycin has been considered the treatment of choice especially for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections; but its poor tissue penetration, renal toxicity, and requiring of dosages monitoring, raises the need for new treatment alternatives such as daptomycin.
AIMS: To analyze the safety and effectiveness of daptomycin in children.
METHODS: Children with microbiologically documented infections treated with daptomycin were retrospectively included.
RESULTS: The most frequent infections were endocarditis in 9 (32%), sepsis in 4 (14%), bacteremia in 7 (associated with catheter in 3) (25%), osteomyelitis in 3 (10%), peritonitis associated with dialysis in 3 (10%) and suppurative thrombophlebitis in 2 patients (p) (7%). Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus was the most common pathogen in 18 patients (64%). The indications for daptomycin were due to the failure of conventional treatment in 17 (61%), and the toxicity or intolerance to vancomycin in 11 patients (39%). The average duration of treatment was 19 days (95% ICR 7-42 days). Four patients (14%) completed outpatient treatment, 22 patients had a favorable response (79%). Adverse events were reported in 3 patients (2 creatinine-phosfo-kinase increase) and in one severe skin rash.
CONCLUSIONS: Daptomycin demonstrated a favorable efficacy and safety in this pediatric population.
