The aim of the current study was to compare community-acquired acute
pyelonephritis (CA-APN) with health care-associated acute pyelonephritis
(HCA-APN), describe the outcomes, and identify variables that could predict
antimicrobial susceptibility. We conducted an observational study that included
all consecutive episodes of acute pyelonephritis (APN) in adults during 2014 at a
Spanish university hospital. From each episode, demographic data, comorbidities,
clinical presentation, microbiological data, antimicrobial therapy, and outcome
were recorded. A multivariable logistic regression model was performed to define
the variables associated with antimicrobial resistance. A total of 607 patients,
503 (82.9%) with CA-APN and 104 (17.1%) with HCA-APN, were included in the study.
Patients with HCA-APN were older than patients with CA-APN (70.4 versus 50.6
years; P < 0.001) and had higher rates of previous urinary tract infections
(UTIs) (56.5% versus 24.5%; P < 0.001) and previous antibiotic use (56.8% versus
22.8%; P < 0.001). Escherichia coli was more frequently isolated from patients
with CA-APN than from patients with HCA-APN (79.9% versus 50.5%; P < 0.001). The
rates of resistance of Escherichia coli strains from CA-APN patients versus
HCA-APN patients were as follows: amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, 22.4% versus 53.2%
(P = 0.001); cefuroxime, 7.7% versus 43.5% (P = 0.001); cefotaxime, 4.3% versus
32.6% (P < 0.001); ciprofloxacin, 22.8% versus 74.5% (P < 0.001); and
co-trimoxazole, 34.5% versus 58.7% (P = 0.003). The site of acquisition,
recurrent UTIs, and previous antibiotic use were independent risk factors for
antimicrobial resistance. Relapse rates were significantly higher when definitive
antimicrobial treatment was not adequate (37.1% versus 9.3% when definitive
antimicrobial treatment was adequate; P < 0.001). Our study reflects the rise of
resistance to commonly used antibiotics in acute pyelonephritis. In order to
choose the adequate empirical antibiotic therapy, risk factors for resistance
should be considered.
