From: Treatment of Haemophilus bacteremia with benzylpenicillin is associated with increased (30-day) mortality

Figure 1

Kaplan Meyer Survival curves for Haemophilus bacteremia according to definitive antibiotic therapy. Treatment with cefuroxime or aminopenicillins resulted in a significant lower 30-day CFR than treatment with benzylpenicillin or broadspectrum antibiotics (Log rank test, P < 0.02). When compared to benzylpenicillin, treatment with cefuroxime caused a significantly lower 30-day CFR in crude analysis (OR: 0.22 (0.07-0.70, P = 0.01), and in adjusted analyses including variables presented in Table 2 (Bivariate logistic regression, P < 0.05).
