Abstract

Introduction: Bacteremia poses a significant health risk due to its frequently atypical presentation and potential progression to sepsis. Understanding its clinical profiles and causative pathogens is essential for timely diagnosis and effective management. This study examined the characteristics of bacteremia cases in 2022 at Universitas Airlangga Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. Methods: A retrospective, descriptive observational study was conducted utilizing hospitalized bacteremia patients' medical records. A total of 107 patients met the inclusion criteria, which required positive blood cultures along with complete data on age (≥19 years), sex, comorbidities, clinical manifestations, bacterial infection diagnosis, outcomes, and pathogen characteristics. Medical records failing to meet these criteria were excluded. The data were categorized and analyzed by variables. Results: Bacteremia predominantly affected patients aged >65 years (36.4%), males (50.5%), and those with diabetes (54.2%) and with pneumonia (79.4%). Key symptoms included tachycardia (55.1%), tachypnea (55.1%), anemia (65.4%), and leukocytosis (71.0%), despite normal vitals observed in numerous cases. Gram-positive bacteria were most prevalent (69.7%), mainly Staphylococcus hominis (18.7%). Escherichia coli (9.3%) was the leading Gram-negative isolate, while extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) strains (4.2%) were the primary multidrug-resistant organisms (MDRO). Sepsis and septic shock were equally prevalent (35.5%). Mortality (64.5%) occurred primarily due to septic shock (49.3%). Conclusion: Sepsis and septic shock frequently occur in older males with diabetes and pneumonia. Key symptoms include frequent tachycardia, tachypnea, anemia, and leukocytosis. Septic shock, the leading cause of death in bacteremia patients, frequently occurs alongside infections by Staphylococcus hominis and ESBL-producing Escherichia coli.   Highlights: 1. This study offers fresh perspectives on the clinical profiles of hospitalized bacteremia patients and the characteristics of causative bacteria at Universitas Airlangga Hospital, a topic that has been minimally explored in the Indonesian medical community. 2. It highlights the prevalence of bacteremia, its clinical manifestations, and outcomes to determine the mortality rate of hospitalized bacteremia patients. 3. This study provides valuable data that can help inform future infection control strategies to manage and prevent bloodstream infections, hence enhancing healthcare outcomes by emphasizing the importance of improving clinical data collection and monitoring.

Abstract

Tuberkulosis (TB) merupakan masalah kesehatan global yang masih menjadi prioritas utama dalam upaya penanggulangan penyakit. Tingginya angka kesakitan dan kematian akibat TB memerlukan langkah-langkah strategis, terutama dalam hal deteksi dini dan pengobatan yang tepat. Diagnosis dini TB paru yang akurat dan cepat sangat bergantung pada deteksi bakteri patogen dalam dahak pasien, yang selanjutnya menentukan strategi pengobatan yang sesuai. Tes Cepat Molekuler (TCM) digunakan untuk diagnosis awal, sedangkan pemantauan hasil pengobatan dilakukan melalui pemeriksaan mikroskopis bakteri tahan asam (BTA). Tujuan kegiatan Pengmas adalah meningkatkan pemahaman dan keterampilan staf teknisi laboratorium dalam mendiagnosis TB sesuai dengan standar kompetensi.  Serta memperkuat peran kader kesehatan dalam penanggulangan TB di masyarakat. Tim Dosen Departemen Mikrobiologi Kedokteran Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Airlangga bersama mahasiswa dan alumni Program Studi Spesialis Mikrobiologi Klinik melaksanakan kegiatan ceramah mengenai TB paru, meliputi aspek diagnosis, pengobatan, dan pencegahan penularan kepada 17 kader kesehatan serta pelatihan pemeriksaan mikroskopis BTA bagi  16 staf teknisi laboratorium dari berbagai fasilitas kesehatan masyarakat dan RSUD di Kabupaten Pamekasan. Evaluasi pasca pelatihan menunjukkan peningkatan yang signifikan dalam pemahaman dan keterampilan para kader kesehatan terkait temuan kasus TB di masyarakat, diagnostik, serta upaya pencegahan penularan. Seluruh staf laboratorium mengalami peningkatan kompetensi dalam pemeriksaan BTA, termasuk pembuatan dan pembacaan sediaan sesuai standar nasional (IUATLD). Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat oleh tim akademisi efektif dalam pemberdayaan kader kesehatan sebagai ujung tombak deteksi dini TB serta meningkatkan keterampilan diagnosis mikroskopis staf laboratorium. Pelatihan ini berkontribusi pada peningkatan kualitas diagnosis dan pengobatan TB.

Abstract

Highlights This study found that ESKAPE pathogenic infections at Universitas Airlangga Hospital were dominated by Gram-negative bacteria, particularly Klebsiella pneumoniae, with sputum as the most commonly collected specimen providing valuable data for infection control strategies. Most patients exhibited significant clinical manifestations involving neurological disorders, with the respiratory system being the most affected information that may enhance the effectiveness of patient management in the hospital.   ABSTRACT Background: Infections pose a significant threat in Indonesia, particularly in healthcare settings where healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are prevalent. At a hospital in Jakarta, the prevalence of ESKAPE pathogens was reported to be 69.8%. However, detailed data on the infection profiles of these pathogens remain scarce. This underscores the importance of studying ESKAPE pathogenic bacteria to better understand their characteristics. Objective: This study aimed to determine the infection profile of ESKAPE pathogens in hospitalized patients at Universitas Airlangga Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia in 2022. Material and Method: This descriptive observational study employed a retrospective design using secondary data from non-ICU inpatients at Universitas Airlangga Hospital infected with ESKAPE pathogens in 2022. Total sampling was applied to eligible medical records. Result: The study included 119 specimens from inpatients infected with ESKAPE pathogens that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Of these, 78% were Gram-negative bacterial infections, with Klebsiella pneumoniae being the most prevalent (29%). Sputum was the most commonly collected specimen (49%). Most patients were male (57%), aged 56–65 years (29%), and had no comorbidities (46%). Additionally, 63% of patients had used invasive devices during hospitalization. The majority were admitted to low-care inpatient wards. The primary clinical features were neurological complaints (29%) and respiratory disorders (37%), predominantly associated with Klebsiella pneumoniae. Conclusion: ESKAPE infections were primarily caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae, a Gram-negative bacterium, most frequently identified in sputum samples. The predominant clinical manifestations were decreased consciousness and respiratory disorders. Affected patients were mainly male, aged ≥56 years, hospitalized in low-care wards, with a history of invasive device use and no comorbidities.
