Brief summary

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is a multi-resistant Gram-negative bacillus and is an opportunistic pathogen. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia infections are associated with a significant morbidity and mortality, particularly in immunocompromised patients. The mortality of infections (bacteremia, pneumonia) related to Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is variable and is estimated between 21 and 69%. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia pneumopathies have been mainly described in patients hospitalized in intensive care and benefiting from mechanical ventilation. The existence of immunosuppression seems to be a risk factor for the transition from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia pulmonary colonization to Stenotrophomonas maltophilia pulmonary infection. The reference treatment for Stenotrophomonas maltophilia-associated pneumonia is the combination of trimethoprim and sulfamthoxazole, a molecule that lung transplant patients routinely receive as a preventive treatment for Pneumocysitis jirovecii infection. There is no consensus on the value of routine dual-antibiotic therapy, and it varies from one center to another and from one country to another. The main objective is to compare the clinical-microbiological evolution of lung transplant patients treated for Stenotrophomonas maltophilia pneumopathy according to the prescription of a mono- or bi-antibiotherapy. The secondary objective is to evaluate the resistance rate of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia strains isolated from respiratory samples according to the anti-pneumocystis prophylactic molecule received by the patient.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Clinical-microbiological course of lung transplant patients treated for Stenotrophomonas maltophilia pneumoniaDay 1This outcome corresponds to the comparison of mortality and recurrence rates of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia pneumonia according to the prescription of mono- or dual-antibiotic therapy.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Resistance rate of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia strainsDay 1This outcome corresponds to the Trimethorpime/sulfamethoxazole resistance rate of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia strains.
