P-1075. Treatment Patterns among Hospitalized Patients with Gram-Negative Infection Treated with Imipenem/Cilastatin/Relebactam (I/R): Retrospective US-based EHR Medical Chart Review

Abstract Background Real world evidence with I/R is limited. This study describes the patient, treatment, and clinical outcomes of hospitalized adult patients with a suspected gram negative (GN) infection who were treated with I/R for ≤48hrs.Table 1.Initial baseline characteristics at index period for overall IMI/REL patients and stratified by COVID-19 at time of indexSD, standard deviation. Methods This retrospective manual electronic health records (EHR) chart review used Oracle Life Sciences’ EHR database, a large US health systems database capturing inpatient and outpatient encounters including physician notes and labs. The study population included all individuals with an index I/R medication in the database between 1 December 2020 and 31 December 2022. The pre- and post-index period for assessment of clinical characteristics (e.g., prior hospitalizations or antibiotic therapy, hospital readmission, etc.) were 90 days pre- and post-initiation date of I/R. Descriptive statistics were used to examine variables of interest. Results A total of 58 patient charts were reviewed; 41.4% were female and 67.2% were white. The average age at time of admission was 54 years. Mean Charlson Comorbidity Index was 5; 27.6% had a prior hospitalization in the 3 months prior to current infection; 8.6% had presence of bacteremia at time of I/R initiation and 43.1% were diagnosed with sepsis. ICU admission occurred in 55.2% of patients and mean (SD) consecutive days of IMI/REL use was 13 (25) days. Overall, 46.2% of patients had received another novel β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor prior to I/R. Most patients (74.1%) did not experience a 30-day hospital readmission after receiving I/R. Among those (25.9%) who did have a readmission, most (66.7%) had a single hospital readmission. The mean length of stay for hospitalization was 39 days. The all-cause in-hospital mortality (ACHM) was 13.8%. 56.9% of the isolates from patients treated with I/R had susceptibility to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Nearly half of the patients (46.6%) had COVID-19 at index. Conclusion Among patients who survived to discharge, approximately three-quarters did not experience 30-day hospital readmission. Despite ≥40% non-susceptibility to PsA, ACHM was still low, pointing to the important role of I/R in treatment.
