Performance Evaluation of the Newly Developed In Vitro Rapid Diagnostic Test for Detecting OXA-48-Like, KPC-, NDM-, VIM- and IMP-Type Carbapenemases: The RESIST-5 O.K.N.V.I. Multiplex Lateral Flow Assay
The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of the RESIST-5 O.K.N.V.I. assay for identifying these five common domestic carbapenemases among a large number of clinical isolates in South Korea. A total of 268 non-duplicated clinical isolates of gram-negative bacilli were included in t...

Sumario: | The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of the RESIST-5 O.K.N.V.I. assay for identifying these five common domestic carbapenemases among a large number of clinical isolates in South Korea. A total of 268 non-duplicated clinical isolates of gram-negative bacilli were included in this study as follows: 258 carbapenemase-producing (CP) strains (OXA-48-like, KPC, NDM, VIM, IMP, GES, OXA-23 and two or more carbapenemase producers) and 10 non-CP carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (non-CP CREs). Overall sensitivity and specificity were 98.4% and 100%, respectively. In addition, all non-targeted carbapenemase producers including GES and OXA-23 producers and non-CP CREs were correctly identified as negative results. There were only four discrepant cases in which three VIM carbapenemase producers and one NDM carbapenemase producer were not detected. The RESIST-5 O.K.N.V.I. assay as an in vitro diagnostic test for detecting five common carbapenemases provided rapid and accurate results in a short time, indicating that this method could provide an innovative solution for early detection, resulting in appropriate antimicrobial treatment in the clinical field. |
