1 Skin & Soft Tissue Infections (SSTI) Skin & Soft Tissue Infections 2007 Abscess Cellulitis Bradley W Frazee, MD, FACEP Dept of Emergency Medicine Alameda County Medical Center - Highland Hospital Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine UCSF Necrotizing soft tissue infections (NSTI) Skin & Soft Tissue Infections (SSTI) SSTIs diagnostic approach: first look for pus! Community acquired-mrsa (CA-MRSA) (Abscess) Necrotizing soft tissue infections (NSTI) (Cellulitis) Redness, warmth, tenderness fluctuance or positive bedside ultrasound + Abscess* *Surgical diseases Cellulitis or NSTI* SSTIs Utility of ED ultrasound Diagnosis: unsuspected pus Procedural assistance: localize pus pocket for I&D Deltoid abscess -longitudinal view Contralateral normal shoulder Deltoid abscess -transverse view 1

2 Ultrasound appearance of cellulitis Isoechoic abscess w/ posterior acoustic enhancement Forearm cellulitis Normal Case #1 the old spider bite 40 y/o woman c/o a spider bite on leg. Onset 3 d/a. Hx same 1 mo/a. Notes husband had similar bite No PMH or Meds No IDU Afebrile. Community-associated MRSA (CA-MRSA) skin and soft tissue infections?!!??! Spontaneous furuncle 2

3 The story of CA-MRSA Hospital-associated MRSA (HA-MRSA) present since 60 s Multiresistant, SCCmec I-III Pts presenting from community with HA-MRSA infections had risk factors (recent hospitalization, SNF, HD ) CA-MRSA mid 1990 s Community onset MRSA infection - no risk factors Children in U.S. (pneumonia deaths); Native Americans; Australia; France Explosion of skin & soft tissue infections CA-MRSA Distinct genotype SCCmec IV Panton-Valentine Leukocidin (PVL) Distinct phenotype Antibiotic susceptibility: TMP/SMX, clinda, doxy Pathogenicity Spreads within communities outbreaks of skin & soft tissue infections Native American communities Prison inmates Sports teams CA-MRSA Prospective ED study Oakland, CA Urban, county population 137 adult ED pts w/ skin and soft tissue infections Cultures of infection site & nares (colonization) Risk factor analysis Antibiogram and genotyping CA-MRSA Oakland ED study N=137 Young (<60) 18% homeless 27% IDU Frazee et al. Annals Emerg Med CA-MRSA Oakland ED study culture results CA-MRSA Oakland ED study antibiograms USA 300 Nares culture N=137 Negative 97 MRSA 28 (20%) MSSA 12 Infection Site Cultures N=119 Other 14 Negative 26 MSSA 18 MRSA 61 (51%) Antibiotic Oxacillin Erythromycin Levofloxacin Tetracycline Clindamycin MSSA (N=30) MRSA (N=89) TMP-SMX Vancomycin Inducible clindamycin resistance (+ D-test) 3

4 CA-MRSA ED study genotyping of MRSA isolates 99% possessed SCCmec IV allele (marker of CA-MRSA) 87% were a single clone, USA 300 Not reported in California prior to 2000 Linked to MRSA in California prisons, sports team outbreaks Now predominant clone across USA 94% PVL + Instrumental in spontaneous furunculosis (?) Associated w/ necrotizing CA-MRSA pneumonia Multicenter National Study of SSTIs EMERGEncy ID NET OHSU OV-UCLA Maricopa UNM Hennepin UMissouri Charity Grady Bellevue Temple Carolinas Prevalence of MRSA across US 422 ED Patients with SSTI (August, 2004) 7/13 (54%) 24/47 (51%) MSSA 17% 59% 26/42 (62%) 24/47 (51%) 11/28 (39%) 43/58(74%) 23/32 (72%) 46/69 (67%) 4/20 (20%) 32/58 (55%) 17/25 (68%) Overall rise in ED visits for SSTI attributable to CA-MRSA? There has been a dramatic rise in the occurrence of S. aureus infections in general and CA-MRSA in particular Epidemic CA-MRSA disease has been reported in most, but not all, U.S. cities and from some rural areas. ED visits for SSTI Daum. NEJM 2007 NHMCS preliminary data CA-MRSA risk factors & epidemiology CA-MRSA: antimicrobial options Risk factor data inconsistent: prior CA-MRSA infection (or close contact) Risk groups Prison inmates Contact sport teams HIV-positive American Indian Fomites (dressings, surfaces) Trimethoprim / Sulfamethoxazole (po, IV?) Clindamycin (po or IV) Doxycycline (po) Vancomycin (IV) Linezolid (po or IV) Daptomycin (IV) Dalbavancin (IV q week; not yet available) Rifampin (po) Mupirocin (topical) STOP are antibiotics really necessary? 4

5 Skin & soft tissue infection treatment algorithm (in setting of prevalence community-acquired MRSA) [2/05 version] Abscess incision & drainage Cellulitis Impetigo Must cover GAS* Keflex +/- TMP/SMX * GAS = Group A strep. Uncomplicated abscess Surgical treatment Strongly consider no Abx If Abx, cover MRSA Doxy or TMP/SMX alone TMP/SMX + keflex or Clindamycin alone Complicated abscess (significant surrounding cellulitis) Infected wound, foot ulcer, etc Immunocompromised host Consider surgical treatment Cover CA-MRSA & GAS po IV Clinda + vanco or Zosyn** + vanco ** if Gram neg. pathogen suspected Abscess I & D options for anesthesia and sedation Local Ring Block Local - bupivicaine ring block Regional anaesthesia Nitro-nox Conscious sedation - fentanyl + midazolam Short acting deep sedation in ED Methohexitol (+ fentanyl) Propofol (+ fentanyl) General anesthesia in OR How do you manage this thing? 5

6 Abscess post I&D antibiotics CA-MRSA uncomplicated abscess: are antibiotics needed? Literature is scant and non-uniform Uncomplicated abscess 3 prospective randomized trials: all 3 found no benefit to antibiotics NO NO NO surrounding cellulitis often invoked Rutherford.

Ann EM 2007 Maybe Yes CA-MRSA decolonization Other types of CA-MRSA infections: pyomyositis History of multiple furuncles Multiple cases in single household Nasal mupirocin Chlorhexidine (Hibicleanse) washes - axilla and groin Rifampin + TMP/SMX Spontaneous abscess of large muscles (e.g. thigh) Risk factors: diabetes & AIDS Formerly rare in nontropical countries Reports increasing adults and children Panaraj.
