Multicenter Evaluation of the Modified Carbapenem Inactivation Method and the Carba NP for Detection of Carbapenemase-Producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to develop the modified carbapenem inactivation method (mCIM) for the detection of carbapenemase-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CP-PA) and carbapenemase-producing Acinetobacter baumannii (CP-AB) and perform a multicenter evaluation of the mCIM and Carba NP tests for these nonfermenters. Thirty P. aeruginosa and 30 A. baumannii isolates previously characterized by whole-genome sequencing from the CDC-FDA Antibiotic Resistance Isolate Bank were evaluated, including CP isolates (Ambler class A, B, and D), non-carbapenemase-producing (non-CP) carbapenem-resistant isolates, and carbapenem-susceptible isolates. Initial comparison of a 1-?l versus 10-?l loop inoculum for the mCIM was performed by two testing sites and showed that 10 ?l was required for reliable detection of carbapenemase production among P. aeruginosa and A. baumannii Ten testing sites then evaluated the mCIM using a 10-?l loop inoculum. Overall, the mean sensitivity and specificity of the mCIM for detection of CP-PA across all 10 sites were 98.0% (95% confidence interval [CI], 94.3 to 99.6; range, 86.7 to 100) and 95% (95% CI, 89.8 to 97.7; range, 93.3 to 100), whereas the mean sensitivity and specificity among CP-AB were 79.8% (95% CI, 74.0 to 84.9; range, 36.3 to 95.7) and 52.9% (95% CI, 40.6 to 64.9; range, 28.6 to 100), respectively. At three sites that evaluated the performance of the Carba NP test using the same set of isolates, the mean sensitivity and specificity of the Carba NP test were 97.8% (95% CI, 88.2 to 99.9; range, 93.3 to 100) and 97.8% (95% CI, 88.2 to 99.9; range, 93.3 to 100) for P. aeruginosa and 18.8% (95% CI, 10.4 to 30.1; range, 8.7 to 26.1) and 100% (95% CI, 83.9 to 100; range, 100) for A. baumannii Overall, we found both the mCIM and the Carba NP test to be accurate for detection of carbapenemase production among P. aeruginosa isolates and less reliable for use with A. baumannii isolates.

Project description:ObjectiveIn recent years, Acinetobacter baumannii has been appearing in hospitals with high drug resistance and strong vitality, which brings many difficulties to clinical treatment. In this study, 255 strains of A. baumannii were isolated from Youjiang Medical University for Nationalities Affiliated Hospital clinical samples and found to be highly resistant to carbapenems. The drug resistance, biofilm-forming ability, and carbapenase gene distribution of 145 carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii (CRAB) strains were analyzed statistically.MethodsThe clinically isolated strains were detected using Vitek mass spectrometry and Vitek2-compact for bacterial identification and susceptibility testing, respectively. The biofilms of clinical isolates were quantitatively detected by microplate crystal violet staining, and qualitatively observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). And the common carbapenemase genes were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).ResultsThe 255 clinical isolates from the Youjiang District of western Guangxi Province had a high resistance rate to carbapenems antibiotics. The main specimens were from the intensive care unit (49%), and the most important specimens were sputum specimens (80%). All 145 strains of CRAB produced different degrees of biofilm, and six carbapenenase genes were detected. We found that there were significant differences in biofilm formation between resistant and sensitive strains of tobramycin, levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, tigecycline, and doxycycline (P<0.05). The distribution of blaOXA-23 and blaOXA51 genes was significantly different from CRAB biofilm formation (P<0.05). In addition, AmpC, blaOXA-23, blaOXA-51, and TEM genes were more distributed in antibiotic-resistant strains.ConclusionThe clinical strains have a high resistance rate to carbapenems, and the CRAB with blaOXA-51 and blaOXA-23 genes has a high resistance to antibiotics and a strong biofilm.
