Abstract:

Objective To investigate the capacity and application value of modified carbapenem inactivation method(mCIM)and ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid-carbapenem inactivation method(eCIM)for phenotypic detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. Methods A total of 117 strains of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae(CRE) (experimental group)and 50 strains of carbapenem-sensitive Enterobacteriaceae (control group)were collected. Phenotypic screening was performed by modified Hodge test(MHT),mCIM and eCIM in both groups,respectively. Common carbapenem-resistant genes were detected by polymerase chain reaction(PCR). The consistency of phenotypic screening and gene examinations was analyzed statistically. Results When the detection result of carbapenem-resistant genes was taken as golden standard,the sensitivity of MHT for screening carbapenemase was 87.0%,and the specificity was 100.0%;both sensitivity and specificity of mCIM were 100.0%;the sensitivity and specificity of eCIM were 82.4% and 100.0% respectively. Conclusion mCIM is more sensitive than MHT in screening carbapenemase. The combined detection of mCIM and eCIM can effectively detect carbapenemase and distinguish the type of carbapenemase,which can play a guiding role in clinical medication.
