Bacterial sepsis withfluoroquinolone resistant E. coli
after prostate biopsy –
Is fluoroquinolone prophylaxisstill effective?
Supervisie: Prof. Dr. J. VerhaegenProf. Dr. H. Van Poppel
Why this topic and why now?
Concern of increasing fluoroquinolone resistance
Perception that increased numbers of patients are being admitted for post-TRUSPB sepsis @ UZ Leuven
No agreement on the antibiotic agent to be used forprophylaxis
No agreement on the duration of prophylaxis

Prophylaxis regimen: which AB agent?
Antibiotic requirements for a genitourinary tissue infection/bacteremia after TRUSPB:
activity against potential uropathogens
• trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole: R < enterococcus & PSSP
• nitrofurantoin: R < proteus & PSSP
• cephalosporins: R < enterococcus & PSSP
• aminoglycosides: R < anaerobic bacteria
• fluoroquinolones: R < most anaerobic bacteria & streptococci

Prophylaxis regimen: which AB agent?
Fluoroquinolonesbroad spectrum of activity against gram + and gram -
bacteria
excellent oral absorption
peak serum levels: 1-3 hours
good penetration prostatic tissue
long-lasting urinary bacteriocidal activity
non-toxic
BUT resistance of E. coli increasing worldwide
Prophylaxis regimen: Duration
Single dose versus 3-day course of fluoroquinolone? antibiotic efficiency
antibiotic resistance
cost-effectiveness
Prophylaxis regimen: Duration

antibiotic resistance
cost-effectiveness
Arguments against a longer duration of antibiotics low incidence of post-biopsy sepsis
sepsis often caused by resistant organisms, not inadequate duration
increased cost of antibiotics
contribution to worsening resistance to chosen antibiotic

Objectives
What is the incidence of sepsis following TRUSPB at our center? Did rates of infectious complicationsincrease in recent years?
What are predisposing factors of sepsis afterTRUSPB?
What is the incidence of ciprofloxacin resistantfaecal strains before TRUSPB at our center? Is fluoroquinolone prophylaxis still effective?
RETROSPECTIVE STUDY
Sepsis after TRUSPB @ UZ Leuven:a retrospective study
Material and Methods TRUSPB from 01/01/2003 to 31/12/2009: screening for positive HC
positive blood cultures with E. coli within 30 days after biopsy date
medical records of all patients with sepsis occurring within 30 days after biopsy were reviewed for:
history of prostate pathology (including prostatitis)
medical comorbidities
risk factors for urosepsis
use of prophylactic antibiotics
onset of sepsis in relation to TRUS biopsy
length of hospitalization
causative organisms
antibiotic sensitivity patterns in both blood and urine cultures
average cost that was associated with the hospitalization
Sepsis after TRUSPB @ UZ Leuven:a retrospective study
Results INCIDENCE
Overall incidence of urosepsis: 0.95% (54/5663 biopsy procedures)BUT estimate of incidence was likely an underestimation!
Incidence of sepsis 2003-2005: 0.39% (10/2550) Incidence of sepsis 2006-2009: 1.41% (44/3112)

RECOMMENDATIONS
Recommendations
Antibiotic resistance patterns in this highlyselected population suggests that prophylaxisregimen should be re-evaluated:
Consideration of 1g IM ceftriaxone (Rocephine®) 30 minutes before biopsy for high risk patients
Recommendations
Antibiotic resistance patterns in this highlyselected population suggests that prophylaxisregimen should be re-evaluated:
Consideration of 1g IM ceftriaxone (Rocephine®) 30 minutes before biopsy for high risk patients
prior quinolone use < 6 months before biopsy prior infectious complications of TRUSPB recurrent bacterial prostatitis, UTI’s indwelling catheter Diabetes Mellitus
Recommendations
Antibiotic resistance patterns in this highlyselected population suggests that prophylaxisregimen should be re-evaluated:
Consideration of 1g IM ceftriaxone (Rocephine®) 30 minutes before biopsy for high risk patients
Rectal swab in patients with a history of fluoroquinoloneuse to screen for faecal carriage of quinolone resistant E. coli strains
Recommendations
Proposal to protocol for antimicrobial prophylaxis
Patients without risk factors:
Single dose Ciprofloxacin 500 mg 12 to 1h before biopsy
versus
Ciprofloxacin 500 mg 12 to 1h before biopsy + once dailyfor 3 days
No arguments for the use of more than one dose
Recommendations
Proposal to protocol for antimicrobial prophylaxis
Patients without risk factors
Patients with quinolone use in the previous 6 months, no other risk factors: RECTAL SWAB
cipro S: Ciprofloxacin 500 mg
cipro R: Rocephine® 1g IM 30 min before biopsy
Recommendations
Proposal to protocol for antimicrobial prophylaxis
Patients without risk factors
Patients with quinolone use in the previous 6 months, no other risk factors
Patients with 1 or more risk factors:
Rocephine® 1g IM 30 min before biopsy
Recommendations
Proposal to protocol for antimicrobial prophylaxis
Patients without risk factors
Patients with quinolone use in the previous 6 months, no other risk factors
Patients with 1 or more risk factors
What about patients allergic to penicillin? the widely quoted cross-allergy risk of 10% between
penicillin and cephalosporins is a myth
patients who have had a true IgE-mediated reaction to a penicillin: avoid using cephalosporins with a similar side chain (cephalothin, cephalexin, cefadroxil, and cefazolin)
alternative: gentamicin 240 mg IV 1h before biopsy
