Persistent Pediatric Breast Abscesses Following Initial Treatment At Tertiary And Community Centers, Derek Marlor, Kayla Briggs-Groves, Shai Stewart Md, Nelimar Cruz-Centeno, Charlene Dekonenko, Jason D. Fraser

Research Days

Introduction: Little data exist on the management of pediatric breast abscesses that fail initial treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate and report outcomes in these patients.

Methods: All patients <18-years-old treated for a breast abscess between January 2008 and December 2018 were included. Patients were divided into 2 groups: initial treatment at our institution (Group 1) and initial treatment at referring centers (Group 2). The primary outcome was disease persistence following treatment at our institution. Secondary outcomes included treatment modalities and patient characteristics.

Results: In total, 145 patients were identified: 111 in Group 1 and 34 in Group 2. Antibiotics alone were the initial treatment in 52.3% (n=58) of Group 1 patients and 64.7% (n=22) of Group 2 patients. Invasive treatment was more common in Group 1 (45.9% vs 5.8%; p<0.00001). Patients with persistent disease in Group 1 were treated with aspiration (n=7, 50%), I&D (n=5, 35.7%), antibiotics (n=1, 7.14%), and manual expression (n=1, 7.14%.), while Group 2 patients were treated with antibiotics (50%, n=17), aspiration (26.47%, n=9), I&D (17.65%, n=6), and manual expression (5.88%, n=2). Group 2 patients with persistent disease were more likely to be treated with antibiotics or a change in antibiotics (50% vs 7.14%; p=0.005). Following treatment at our institution, the rate of persistent disease was similar between groups (12.6% vs 11.8%).

Conclusions: Persistent breast abscesses may be treated with antibiotics in appropriate cases. Damage to the developing breast bud should be minimized. Disease …

Respiratory Pathogen Panel Use In Hospitalized Infants <2 Months Of Age And Impact On Patient Management., Edward Lyon

Research Days

Background: Respiratory pathogen panels (RPP) are multiplex PCR platforms able to simultaneously detect several respiratory viruses. RPP utilization is not well described in infants < 2 months of age, who frequently require hospitalization for management of acute respiratory illness (ARI) and/or fever. Detection of a viral pathogen in this age group could impact the clinician’s decision to perform additional evaluation and administer antimicrobials.

Objectives/Goal: We sought to understand predictive features and clinical management impact of RPP use in infants < 2 months of age.

Methods/Design: Between October 2017 to September 2021, participants, aged < 18 years, hospitalized with an acute respiratory infection (ARI) were enrolled in Kansas City’s New Vaccine Surveillance Network (NVSN). Eligible patients were residents of Jackson County, had symptoms consistent with ARI (e.g., cough, fever, nasal congestion) lasting < 14 days, and enrolled within 48 hours of admission. For this study, only participants < 2 months of age were included. All participants had a research RPP, but results were not available to the clinician. Per provider discretion, some infants also received a clinical RPP (cRPP). Demographic characteristics, laboratory evaluations, and antimicrobial management were compared between infants with and without a cRPP.

Results: Of the 139 participants < 2 months of age, 57 (41%) had a cRPP (table 1). A cRPP was more frequently obtained in infants < 1 month of age (n=34 [47%]) compared with infants 1-2 months of age (n=23 [35%]; p=0.17). 35 (61%) participants with a cRPP had a parental report of fever while 41 (50%) of those without a cRPP had one reported. Only 20 (35.1%) of White, non-hispanic participants had a cRPP compared to 42 (51.2%) p=0.082 who did not have a cRPP. Participants who had blood or CSF culture collected were more likely to have a cRPP obtained, 47 (82.5%) p=

Conclusions: Overall, < 50% of infants < 2 months of age hospitalized with ARI received cRPP testing. Obtaining a blood or CSF culture was associated with increased cRPP usage. The length of stay was not different between the two groups. 35 viral infections went undetected in participants without a cRPP even with accounting for positive rapid NAAT testing, further investigation is needed to understand how this may influence clinical care.
