Resumen

La infección intraabdominal complicada requiere tratamiento quirúrgico y tratamiento antibiótico empírico de amplio espectro utilizado de la forma más precoz posible. Doripenem es un carbapenémico de amplio espectro que proporciona una cobertura frente a los organismos aerobios y anaerobios grampositivos y gramnegativos claves en la infección intraabdominal. Doripenem ha demostrado que no es inferior con respecto a meropenem en 2 ensayos en pacientes con infecciones intraabdominales complicadas. Combinando los resultados de ambos estudios, se alcanzó la curación clínica en el 85,9% de pacientes tratados con doripenem y en el 85,3% de los tratados con meropenem. La erradicación microbiológica se alcanzó en el 84,3% de los pacientes con doripenem y en el 84,5% con meropenem. Doripenem fue más eficaz en el tratamiento de pacientes con infección por Pseudomonas aeruginosa. En resumen, doripenem representa una interesante alternativa para el tratamiento antibiótico empírico de pacientes hospitalizados con infecciones intraabdominales graves.

Abstract

Complicated intraabdominal infections require surgical intervention and the earliest possible empiric broad-spectrum antibacterial therapy. Doripenem, a broad-spectrum carbapenem, provides coverage of key Gram-negative and positive aerobes and anaerobes encountered in complicated intraabdominal infections. In two trials in patients with complicated intraabdominal infections, doripenem was not inferior to meropenem. Combining the results of the two studies, clinical cure rates at the test-of-cure assessment were 85.9% with doripenem and 85.3% with meropenem. Microbiological cure rates were 84.3% with doripenem and 84.5% with meropenem. Doripenem was more effective in the treatment of patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In conclusion, doripenem is a valuable addition to the options available for the empirical treatment of hospitalized patients with serious intraabdominal infections.
