High rates of intestinal colonization with carbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients
Carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are major human pathogens because, these cause high number of difficult-to-treat infections. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (AHSCT) recipients are highly exposed to these type of bacteria. The aim of our study was to investigate prevalence of CRE colonization in AHSCT patients and to determine genes encoding carbapenem resistance. A retrospective study conducted between January 2015 and December 2019, involved 55 patients colonized with CRE strains. We determined the rate of antibiotic resistance according to European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) and the carbapenem resistance genes by PCR assays for genes encoding most frequent β-lactamases namely, blaGES, blaKPC, blaIMI, blaNDM, blaVIM, blaIMP and blaOXA-48. Eighty-one episodes of CRE colonization were recorded in 55 patients, mainly suffering from acute leukaemia (30%) and aplastic anemia (26%). History of hospitalization was noted in 80 episodes. Prior antibiotic treatment, severe neutropenia and corticosteroid therapy were respectively found in 94%, 76% and 58% of cases. Among the 55 patients, six patients (11%) developed a CRE infection. The CRE responsible for colonization were carbapenemase producers in 90% of cases. They belonged mostly to Klebsiella pneumoniae (61/81) and Escherichia coli species (10/81). Antibiotic resistance rates were 100% for ertapenem, 53% for imipenem, 42% for amikacin, 88% for ciprofloxacin and 27% for fosfomycin. Molecular study showed that blaOXA-48 gene was the most frequent (60.5%), followed by blaNDM (58%). Thirty-five (43%) strains were co-producers of carbapenemases. In our study, we report a high rate of CRE intestinal colonization in AHSCT recipients of our center.
