Chronically critically ill patients are a rapidly growing population requiring long-term intensive care. Lower respiratory tract infections are the main infectious complications in these patients. Adaptive phage prophylaxis may be one of the perspective and insufficiently studied approaches for prevention of respiratory infectious complications in intensive care units.
To study the effectiveness of complex cocktail complex drag of bacteriophages in prevention of infectious respiratory complications in chronically critically ill patients.
The study included ICU patients at the Federal Research Clinical Center of Intensive Care and Rehabilitology. Overall sample consisted of 79 patients with severe brain damage. Group 1 (n=41) received complex drag of bacteriophages for prevention of pneumonia, group No. 2 (n=38) — standard therapy. All patients were followed-up for 28 days.
Both groups were comparable in gender, age and clinical severity. Microbiological examination revealed multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria (Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) in majority of patients. In the 1st group, resistance genes were less common compared to the control group. Incidence of recurrent pneumonia was lower in the same group.
Prophylactic phage therapy can reduce the number of antimicrobial drugs. Incidence of nosocomial pneumonia recurrences after 14 and 21 days was lower in the main group.
