Background Healthcare-associated infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa are associated with poor outcomes. However, the role of P. aeruginosa in surgical site infections after colorectal surgery has not been evaluated. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive factors and outcomes of surgical site infections caused by P. aeruginosa after colorectal surgery, with special emphasis on the role of preoperative oral antibiotic prophylaxis. Methods We conducted an observational, multicenter, prospective cohort study of all patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery at 10 Spanish hospitals (2011-2014). A logistic regression model was used to identify predictive factors for P. aeruginosa surgical site infections. Results Out of 3701 patients, 669 (18.1%) developed surgical site infections, and 62 (9.3%) of these were due to P. aeruginosa. The following factors were found to differentiate between P. aeruginosa surgical site infections and those caused by other microorganisms: American Society of Anesthesiologists' score III-IV (67.7% vs 45.5%, p = 0.001, odds ratio (OR) 2.5, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.44-4.39), National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance risk index 1-2 (74.2% vs 44.2%, p < 0.001, OR 3.6, 95% CI 2.01-6.56), duration of surgery [greater than or equai to]75thpercentile (61.3% vs 41.4%, p = 0.003, OR 2.2, 95% CI 1.31-3.83) and oral antibiotic prophylaxis (17.7% vs 33.6%, p = 0.01, OR 0.4, 95% CI 0.21-0.83). Patients with P. aeruginosa surgical site infections were administered antibiotic treatment for a longer duration (median 17 days [interquartile range (IQR) 10-24] vs 13d [IQR 8-20], p = 0.015, OR 1.1, 95% CI 1.00-1.12), had a higher treatment failure rate (30.6% vs 20.8%, p = 0.07, OR 1.7, 95% CI 0.96-2.99), and longer hospitalization (median 22 days [IQR 15-42] vs 19d [IQR 12-28], p = 0.02, OR 1.1, 95% CI 1.00-1.17) than those with surgical site infections due to other microorganisms. Independent predictive factors associated with P. aeruginosa surgical site infections were the National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance risk index 1-2 (OR 2.3, 95% CI 1.03-5.40) and the use of oral antibiotic prophylaxis (OR 0.4, 95% CI 0.23-0.90). Conclusions We observed that surgical site infections due to P. aeruginosa are associated with a higher National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance risk index, poor outcomes, and lack of preoperative oral antibiotic prophylaxis. These findings can aid in establishing specific preventive measures and appropriate empirical antibiotic treatment.
