[Bacteremia in patients with chronic hepatopathy: a study of 54 cases].

The authors reviewed 54 cases of bacteremia in 48 patients with chronic liver disease over a period of two years. Thirty-three were outpatients and 21 were hospitalized. Fifty-eight microorganisms were detected, which represented 10.3% of the total number of germs isolated in all the cases of bacteremia in the hospital during that same period of time. Gram-negative bacilli were predominant, especially Escherichia coli (19 cases); among the gram-positive ones, the most frequent was Staphylococcus aureus (8 cases). There was ascites in 62.9% of the patients, but the predominant symptom was fever. The most frequent sources of infection were: unknown (29.6%), urinary (22.2%), catheter (16.6%) and lung (14.8%). All the in-hospital cases were preceded by an aggressive diagnostic or therapeutic technique. The rate of mortality was 29.6%, and it was highest among patients with gram-negative bacteremia, ascites, Child C (p less than 0.05), complications (hepatic encephalopathy, hemorrhage and/or septic shock) (p less than 0.03), unknown origin or originating from catheter and in-hospital episodes.
