ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to compare sequelae and acute kidney injury (AKI) occurrence among patients with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) after changing institutional guidelines replacing vancomycin with ampicillin for gram-positive coverage. This was a retrospective, single-center cohort analysis of patients from 2016-2020 (n = 73) with NEC at a surgical neonatal intensive care unit with a high community prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Multivariate logistic regression was utilized to assess associations. Twenty-five (34%) patients had at least 1 sequela related to NEC. Ampicillin containing regimens were not associated with any sequelae type or AKI. Postmenstrual age < 29 weeks at diagnosis ([OR] 5.8 [1.2-28.8], P = .03; and receipt of vasopressors [OR] 3.3 [1.1-10.2], P = .04) were independently associated with sequalae. Stage III NEC was independently associated with AKI, OR 10.6 (2-55.6), P = .005. In conclusion, ampicillin-containing regimens are effective for NEC management at our institution despite a high prevalence of MRSA.
