Spatial clusters of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli causing community-onset bacteriuria due to repeat infections: cluster analysis from a large urban medical center, San Francisco, 2014-2020
Background Urinary tract infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-E. coli) may occur as outbreaks due to common-source exposures. Yet, it is currently unknown if they cluster geographically as would be expected as part of an outbreak. Methods We collected electronic health record data on all patients living in San Francisco with culture-documented community-onset E. coli bacteriuria in a safety-net public healthcare system from January 2014 to March 2020 (diagnosed E. coli bacteriuria episodes, and (2) individuals with any ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria episode, with Global and Local Moran’s I. We evaluated differences in prevalence of bacteriuria recurrence by ESBL-production by Poisson regression. Results Out of 4,304 unique individuals, we identified spatial clusters of ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria episodes (n = 461) compared to non-ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria episodes (n = 5477; Global Moran’s p E. coli were not identified (p = 0.43). Bacteriuria recurrence was more likely to occur with ESBL-E. coli (odds ratio [OR] 2.78, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 2.10, 3.66, p E. coli bacteriuria episode (OR 2.27, 95% CI 1.82, 2.83, p E. coli bacteriuria episodes. However, this was partly explained by clustering within individuals more than between individuals, as having an ESBL-E. coli bacteriuria was associated with recurrence with ESBL-E. coli.
