Abstract

Background: Catheter-related candidemia (CRC) is a serious catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) caused by spp., with higher mortality than CRBSIs caused by other organisms.

Objective: To identify the risk factors for CRBSI. The clinical characteristics of 297 patients with CRBSI in a local hospital from January 2007 to June 2015 were collected, including 33 CRBSI and 264 non- CRBSI.

Method: The associations of CRBSI with the clinical variables were examined using univariate and multivariate analyses.

Results: Multivariate analysis showed that glucocorticoid use (odds ratio [OR] = 10.313, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.032-52.330, = 0.005) and parenteral nutrition (OR = 5.400, 95% CI = 0.472-61.752, = 0.0175) were independent risk factors for CRBSI. The most prevalent species were (42.4%) and (36.36%). Of the 33 CRBSI cases, 31 (93.93%) had indwelling central venous catheters (CVC) for ≥14 d. The mortality of CRBSI was remarkably higher than that of bacteria CRBSI. Patients with timely catheter removal and appropriate antifungal treatment had dramatically increased 28-d survival compared with those with untimely catheter removal + inappropriate antifungal treatment (88.89% vs. 0, = 0.006).

Conclusion: The study identified glucocorticoid use and parenteral nutrition as independent risk factors for CRBSI. The outcome of candidemia was associated with the duration of CVC indwelling and antifungal treatment.
