A tailored perioperative surgical prophylaxis regimen targeting VRE may reduce postoperative infections in VRE\u2010colonized patients. This study investigated the outcomes of perioperative daptomycin in this patient population.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This retrospective, single\u2010center cohort study included LTR \u2265 18 years old who were VRE\u2010colonized from June 2018 to November 2022. VRE colonization was identified by a VRE rectal swab screen or a positive VRE culture prior to transplant. Two groups were analyzed: daptomycin versus no daptomycin. All LTR received perioperative piperacillin\u2010tazobactam for 24 h. If VRE\u2010colonized, one dose of daptomycin (6\u00a0mg\/kg) was given pre\u2010 and postoperatively. Demographics, clinical characteristics, risk factors for VRE infection, and daptomycin dose were collected. The primary outcome was VRE infection at 14 days and 90 days post\u2010transplant.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>There were 36 VRE\u2010colonized LTR; 19 received daptomycin and 17 did not. Baseline characteristics and risk factors for VRE infection were similar between groups. More VRE infections occurred in the no daptomycin group within 14 days post\u2010transplant (24%\u00a0vs. 0%, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = .04), but at 90 days posttransplant there was no significant difference (29%\u00a0vs. 16%, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = .43). The average daptomycin dose was 7.1\u00a0mg\/kg.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Perioperative daptomycin reduced the rate of VRE infections in VRE\u2010colonized LTR within 14 days posttransplant but not at 90 days. Future studies should evaluate if higher doses and\/or longer duration of perioperative daptomycin can reduce VRE infections beyond 14 days post\u2010transplant.\n<jats:boxed-text
