Retrospective analysis of 291 cases of Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia (SAB) from 06/2017 to 06/2019 at the University Hospital of Leipzig, Germany: Investigation of adherence to the SAB care bundle, effects on mortality, clinical outcomes, and characterization of strains

From June 2017 to June 2019, 291 cases of Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia (SAB) were evaluated retrospectively. Patient baseline characteristics, clinical presentations, empiric and targeted treatment, and clinical outcomes were assessed. Our study aimed to evaluate the adherence to a designated SAB care bundle and to assess whether proper adherence improved patient survival. Furthermore, as data for spa type distributions in MSSA-SAB are scarce for Germany, we aimed to describe circulating spa types and spa Clonal Complexes (spa CC) in our epidemiological setting.
