Of these, the treatment administered to 85 (64.9%) patients followed the ESC recommendations. In the remaining 46 patients, the reasons for not following the recommendations were the use of daptomycin (14 cases), vancomycin in the absence of resistance (nine cases), teicoplanin (five cases) and other antibiotics such as levofloxacin, imipenem and meropenem. In 37 cases (20 of them in the treatment group that adhered to the guidelines), the decision was made to modify the antimicrobial employed during the course of the disease due to the results of the antibiogram, mainly because of persistent fever (17 cases) or a suspected adverse reaction (five cases).</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall"><a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0005">Table 1</a> shows the baseline characteristics of the two treatment groups.

Nevertheless, the treatment was adjusted according to the antibiogram, and the patients were treated by personnel with experience in this disease. These aspects could justify the lack of differences in the results between the two patient groups, a fact that should be emphasized given that the improper use of antibiotics has been associated with an increased probability of hospital death due to EI.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0095"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a> In the treatment group that did not adhere to the guidelines, <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Staphylococcus aureus</span> was predominant, and the use of antibiotics such as daptomycin, teicoplanin and vancomycin (in the absence of allergies or resistance) was common. There are several reasons for employing antibiotherapy different from the recommended ones. Firstly, the indication for antibiotic treatment in IE is based on a low-grade evidence.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0060"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> There are alternative treatments, which are likely as effective when used correctly and according to the microorganism's resistance pattern. Additionally, changes in antibiotherapy based on the patient's progression are common in clinical practice. All of this creates a tendency toward variability in the final selection of the antibiotic employed.</p><p id="par0070" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Despite the apparent lack of differences in the results of the patients treated outside the guidelines’ recommendations, we should consider that the follow-up period was brief, and there might be other adverse effects that are more difficult to detect but no less significant. The use of recently incorporated antibiotics can represent a greater financial cost when compared with less expensive and equally effective treatments, such as those recommended by scientific societies, such that the final net clinical benefit might not differ but the cost does. This issue requires a pharmacoeconomic analysis in order to provide an answer, which is beyond the objectives of our study. Lastly, we should consider the possible “ecological” impact caused by the emergence of multiresistant microorganisms, as a possible adverse effect from not adhering to the guidelines. In fact, the emergence of resistances has necessitated the implementation of national consensus protocolization programs on the use of antibiotics,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0100"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> an especially pressing problem in critical care units, which require the involvement of all medical personnel.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0105"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10,11</span></a></p><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The main limitations of our study are the small number of cases, the single-center origin and the inherent limitations of a retrospective analysis, which we have attempted to compensate for with the use of the propensity score.</p><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our results should not be interpreted in favor of the use of alternative antibiotics to those recommended in the guidelines. Quite the opposite, following the recommended regimens in these guidelines is as effective as the other regimens based on recently incorporated antibiotics, but their financial and microbiological cost is probably lower.
