2 Treatment of complicated skin and skin structure infections in areas with low incidence of antibiotic resistance-a retrospective population based study from Finland and Sweden Jääskeläinen IH, et al. Clin Microbiol Infect 2016;22: patients; mean age 60.8 years; (60.9% male) 13.3% of patients had bacteraemia, 15.9% were admitted to an Intensive Care Unit 51% underwent at least one surgical intervention. Treatment failure occurred in 28.2%, Initial antibiotic treatment modification to another intravenous drug in 38.5% Gram-positive bacteria were predominantly isolated, Median overall LOS and antimicrobial treatment were 13 and 17 days On average 3.5 (SD 2.1) different antibiotics were used per patient. Oral antimicrobial treatment was continued in 64.3% of patients after discharge. The overall mortality rates in 30 d and in 12 m were 4.1% and 11.8%, respectively 16.4% of patients had a recurrence of SSSI within 12 months.

5 KEY POINTS for a discussion about TREATMENT STRATEGIES A large number recommendations have been published for the management of skin and soft tissue infections. A significant number of comparative trials has been published but they are referred to a different classifications than guidelines The empirical antibiotic therapy should take into account the patient s initial severity, the extent of infection, and the risk factors for resistant microorganisms. The prescriber should differentiate necrotizing and non-necrotizing infections, although this distinction could be difficult to apply. Optimal therapy is based on a timely and aggressive source control for severe cases

7 Annual visits to US Emergency Departments for selected acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections

8 MRSA-ABSSSI is associated with increased risk of mortality and healthcare costs For surgical site infections caused by MRSA vs MSSA : Patients had a 3.4 OR (95% CI: ) for 90-day mortality Patients had 5.5 days (95% CI: ) longer hospital stay Additional healthcare costs of $24,113 (95% CI: 4,521 43,704) Engemann JJ, et al.

28 Safety of Dalbavancin in the Treatment of SSTIs: A Pooled Analysis of Randomized, Comparative Studies. Dunne MW et al, Drug Saf 2016; 39: Data on adverse events and laboratory assessments collected from 3002 patients enrolled in seven late stage, randomized clinical trials were analyzed for patients receiving dalbavancin or a comparator antibiotic. Overall adverse event rates were similar or lower for patients receiving dalbavancin (799/1778; 44.9 %) compared with those receiving comparator agents (573/1224; 46.8 %, p = 0.012). The most common treatment emergent adverse events were nausea, headache, diarrhea, constipation, vomiting, rash, urinary tract infection, pruritus,and insomnia
