• Predictors regression model results:o Carbapenem resistance is inversely associated with strong biofilm • OR 0.09 (95% CI 0.02 – 0.33)

• Hypothesis: There is an association between specific K. pneumoniae antimicrobial resistance and biofilm formation

• Objectives:o Determine biofilm formation and antimicrobial susceptibility for each

K. pneumoniae isolateo Identify if an association exists between K. pneumoniae biofilm formation

and specific antibiotic resistance

• Klebsiella pneumoniae is a frequently multidrug resistant organism with a high propensity to produce biofilm1,2

• K. pneumoniae is the most common carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), which have been categorized as an urgent threat by the CDC and is associated with high mortality rates up to 50%3-5

• The relationship between K. pneumoniae biofilm formation and antimicrobial resistance has not been extensively described and data is limited:o Extensively drug resistant (XDR) K. pneumoniae urinary isolates from a

rehabilitation center formed biofilm at higher rates than MDR strains and susceptible strains (91.1% vs. 67.5% vs. 70.8%, respectively)6

o Biofilm forming K. pneumoniae from a single-center hospital more likely produced ESBL versus non-biofilm formers (83.6% vs. 14.4%, p < 0.01)7

o blaNDM-1 K. pneumoniae isolates from a single-center hospital outbreak were more likely to produce biofilm versus carbapenem susceptible isolates (p < 0.05)8

• Organisms: 139 K. pneumoniae isolates were assessed from the CDC (n=66), BEI (n=36), ATCC (n=3), and patient isolates from Providence VA Medical Center and Rhode Island Hospital (n=34)

• Biofilm Quantification: Modified Crystal Violet Method (OD570)9

o Biofilm formation was defined by tertile cut-points10

• Previously published data describe resistant K. pneumoniae isolates to beassociated with biofilm formation6-8. However, our study comparatively:o Consists of diverse collections of isolates from multiple centerso Uses multivariate statistical analysis o Redefines biofilm quantification to overcome methodological limitations • Standardization of biofilm methods is imperative

• Carbapenem resistant K. pneumoniae were 91% less likely to form biofilmo The inverse relationship between biofilm formation and antibiotic

resistance suggests that virulence may be a trade-off for survivalo Potential clinical impact: allows clinicians to better understand the optimal

treatment approach for their patients if biofilm formation is present

Results

• Isolate susceptibility: based on 2017 CLSI breakpoints, except for tigecycline, colistin, and fosfomycin as CLSI breakpoints were unavailable

• Categorization for MDR and XDR was based on CDC/ECDC consensus11

o Multidrug-resistant (MDR): non-susceptible to ≥ 1 agent in ≥ 3 out of 16 antimicrobial categories

o Extensively drug-resistant (XDR): non-susceptible to ≥ 1 agent in all but ≤ 2 out of 16 antimicrobial categories

• The 16 antimicrobial categories were collapsed to 9 groups below (Table 1)• Statistical analysis (SAS 9.2): o Differences assessed with Chi-square or Fisher’s exact tests for

dichotomous variables and student t-test for continuous variableso Predictors of strong biofilm formation were identified with logistic

regression
