    Abstract: BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: The study was to assess the relationship between antibiotic therapy and the outcome in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with Stenotrophomonas maltophilia bloodstream infection (BSI). METHODS: ICU patients with monomicrobial S. maltophilia BSI from January 2004 to December 2019 were included and divided into two groups-those with- and without appropriate antibiotic therapy after BSI-for comparison. The primary outcome was the relationship between appropriate antibiotic therapy and 14-day mortality. The secondary outcome was the influence of different antibiotic therapies: levofloxacin- and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX)-containing regimens, on 14-day mortality. RESULTS: A total of 214 ICU patients were included. Patients received appropriate antibiotic therapy (n = 133) after BSI had a lower 14-day mortality than those (n = 81) without appropriate antibiotic therapy (10.5% vs. 46.9%, p < 0.001). No difference on 14-day mortality between groups of patients by time of appropriate antibiotic therapy was observed (p > 0.05). After a propensity score matching, the results is consistent that 14-day mortality were lower in patients with appropriate antibiotic therapy than those without appropriate antibiotic therapy (11.5% vs. 39.3%, p < 0.001). Among patients with S. maltophilia BSI receiving appropriate antibiotic therapy, there was a trend levofloxacin-containing regimens is associated with lower mortality than TMP/SMX-containing regimens (HR 0.233, 95% CI 0.050-1.084, p = 0.063). CONCLUSION: Appropriate antibiotic therapy was associated with decreased 14-day mortality in ICU patients with S. maltophilia BSI regardless of time. Levofloxacin-containing regimens may be better choice than TMP/SMX -containing regimens in treating ICU patients with S. maltophilia BSI.
