Although infections caused by Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) are often healthcare-acquired, difficult to treat, and associated with high mortality, epidemiologic data for this organism are limited. This study’s aim was to describe epidemiology, clinical characteristics, and outcomes for patients with XDRAB. Retrospective cohort study Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Centers (VAMCs) Patients with XDRAB cultures (defined as non-susceptible to at least 1 agent in all but 2 or fewer classes) at VAMCs between 2012–2018. Microbiology and clinical data was extracted from national VA datasets. Descriptive statistics summarized patient characteristics and outcomes, and bivariate analyses compared outcomes by culture source. Among 11,546 patients with 15,364 A. baumannii cultures, 408 (3.5%) patients had 667 (4.3%) XDRAB cultures. Patients with XDRAB were older [mean age (SD)=68 (12.2) years] with median (IQR) Charlson index 3 (1–5). Respiratory (n=244, 36.6%) and urine (n=187, 28%) were the most frequent sources; the greatest proportion of patients were from the South (n=162, 39.7%). Most patients had antibiotic exposures (n=362, 88.7%) and hospital or long-term care admissions (n=331, 81%) in the prior 90 days. Polymyxins, tigecycline, and minocycline demonstrated the highest susceptibility. 30-day (n=96, 23.5%) and one-year (n=199, 48.8%) mortality were high, with significantly higher mortality in patients with blood cultures. The proportion of AB in the VA that was XDR was low, but treatment options were extremely limited and clinical outcomes were poor. Prevention of healthcare associated XDRAB infection should remain a priority, and novel antibiotics for XDRAB treatment are urgently needed.
