  3. “As we face the new millennium, we must renew our commitment to the prevention and control of infectious diseases, recognizing that the competition between humans and microbes will continue long past our lifetimes and those of our children.” Jeffrey P. Koplan, Director, CDC

  4. ...no man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main... (From “Devotions” by John Donne (1572-1631)

  5. World-wide problem Major risk factors Antimicrobial use (misuse) Infection control practices (non-compliance) Antimicrobial Resistance

  6. Elderly Immunosuppressive Rx Organ transplant Malignancy HIV / AIDS Diabetes Chronic renal disease Pregnant women Infants and children Alcohol / substance use Chronic lung disease Chronic heart disease Other chronic illnesses Antimicrobial Resistance: Vulnerable Patient Populations

  7. >2 million hospitalized patients affected per year >90,000 deaths per year 85% bacterial pathogens 70% pathogens resistant to >1 agent Antimicrobial Resistancein the U.S.

  8. Definition of Emerging Infections ...."Emerging infections are defined as "new, re-emerging or drug-resistant infections whose incidence in humans has increased within the past two decades or whose incidence threatens to increase in the near future." A number of factors were identified as reasons why emerging infections are a modern-day reality; no one factor could account for the problem"..... Reference: Lederberg J, Shope RE, Oaks SC, eds. Emerging infections: microbial threats to health in the United States. Washington, DC: National Academy Press, 1992

  9. Selective Pressures- Antimicrobial Use and Resistance Fruit Animal husbandry Foreign travel Outpatient care Daycare Fisheries Marine paint Hospitals

  10. Where do we stand at the moment?

  11. Rates of Resistance Versus Rates of Infection • Over past decade, CDC has documented downward trend in infection rates in four major anatomic sites: • Bloodstream • Respiratory tract • Urinary tract • Wounds • At same time, infection rates due to resistant pathogens are increasing

  12. “For as long as CDC has measured the prevalence of hospital-acquired infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms, it has been increasing.” Muto CA. Infect Control Hospital Epidemiol 2005; 26:10-12.

  13. Trend in licensed hospital beds, NNIS Hospitals P <0.01 ICU beds Hospital beds Archibald et al. Clin Infect Dis. 1997 Feb;24(2):211-5.

  35. Hospital-Associated Pneumonia • Leading cause of ICU antimicrobial prescribing

  36. Resistant PathogensCommunity-acquired • Streptococcus pneumoniae • Salmonella • Shigella • Gonococci • Haemophilus influenzae • Mycobacterium tuberculosis • Staphylococcus aureus • ***HIV*** • Malaria

  37. The Reality?

  38. The Best of Times • Over 100 antimicrobial agents available in the U.S. • New antifungals and antivirals • DNA probes and PCR provide accurate laboratory diagnosis of infections in hours

  39. However… • No new classes of agents 1968-2000 • Since 2000, only 3 new classes approved by FDA—effective largely against MRSA &VRE: streptogramins, linezolid, daptomycin • Apart from tigecycline, no new class of agents against Gram-negative organisms

  40. The Worst of Times • New pathogens continue to emerge • Resistance continues to increase: bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites • Reports of MRSA from community settings • Pressures to reduce laboratory costs are curtailing diagnostic services • Not much new for gram negative infections

  41. Other Emerging Gram-negative pathogens • Acinetobacter spp. • Stenotrophomonas spp. • Extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing pathogens: • Enterobacter cloacae • Klebsiella pneumoniae • Carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae

  42. Resistant PathogensCommunity-acquired • Streptococcus pneumoniae • Salmonella • Shigella • Gonococci • Haemophilus influenzae • Mycobacterium tuberculosis • Staphylococcus aureus • ***HIV*** • Malaria

  43. Emergence of Multidrug Resistance in S. pneumoniae • 1930s: Sulfonamide / sulfa drugs discovered & used • 1940s: PCN introduced for Rx • 1943: First sulfa-resistant clinical isolate reported • 1967: First PCN-resistant clinical isolate reported (New Guinea) • 1977: Outbreak of multi-drug resistant pneumococci (South Africa) • 1990s: Global spread of resistant pneumococci

  44. Gram-negative Pathogens • 1986 through 2003: 65% of pneumonia episodes • Proportion of Acinetobacter spp. pneumonias increased from 4% in 1986 to >7.0% in 2003

  45. Why Are Gram-negative Infections Increasing? • Adhere to host tissue via microbial adhesions • Interact with receptors on mucosal surfaces • Adhesin/receptor interactions define bacterial populations

  46. Why Are Gram-negative Infections Increasing? • Changes in adhesins associated with resistant microorganisms or their interactions • Hence the underlying role of antimicrobial use!! • Thus, control must include control of antimicrobial use in ICUs

  47. Antimicrobial Resistance Issues in Developing Countries • Unnecessary intensive care units • Indiscriminate antimicrobial use • Blind empiricism • Unnecessary prophylaxis • Inability to detect true resistance • Enhancement of laboratory capacity • Quality assurance (costly)
