Ordering Guidance
This assay is for surveillance testing on perirectal/rectal/perianal/anal swabs or fecal specimens only. If testing isolates from culture, request OXVRP / Oxacillin-Hydrolyzing Beta-Lactamase (blaOXA-48-like) and Verona integron-encoded metallo-beta-lactamase (blaVIM) in Gram-Negative Bacilli, Molecular Detection, PCR, Varies.
Other mechanisms of carbapenem resistance, including other carbapenemase-types, porin mutations, or hyper-expression of drug efflux pumps may result in carbapenem resistance. These are not detected by this assay. If testing for Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) or New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM) is desired, order KNSRP / Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase (blaKPC) and New Delhi Metallo-beta-lactamase (blaNDM) Surveillance, PCR, Varies.
Additional Testing Requirements
If testing for Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) or New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM) is also needed; also order KNSRP / Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase (blaKPC) and New Delhi Metallo-beta-lactamase (blaNDM) Surveillance, PCR, Varies.

Clinical Information

Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
In the United States, Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) is the most common carbapenemase, followed by New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM). Oxacillin-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase (OXA-48-like) and Verona integron-encoded metallo-beta-lactamase (VIM) carbapenemases predominate in other parts of the globe but do occur in the United States. The genes blaOXA-48-like and blaVIM encode OXA-48-like and VIM enzyme production, respectively. Polymerase chain reaction is a sensitive, specific, and rapid means of identifying these genes.
This test detects the genes encoding OXA-48-like and VIM types of beta-lactamases in feces and perirectal/rectal/perianal/anal swabs. It can be used as a tool to find patients who have been colonized. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends surveillance to detect unrecognized patients who are colonized and who may be a potential source for transmission of carbapenemase-producing Gram-negative bacilli under certain circumstances. Such surveillance may be focused in certain high-risk settings or patient groups (eg, intensive care units, long-term care facilities, patients transferred from areas or facilities with a high prevalence of the relevant type of resistance) or may be directed by infection prevention and control to investigate an outbreak.

Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
This polymerase chain-reaction (PCR) assay detects and differentiates blaOXA-48-like and blaVIM in surveillance specimens (perirectal/rectal/perianal/anal swabs or feces). A positive OXA-48-like (oxacillin-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase) and/or VIM (Verona integron-encoded metallo-beta-lactamase) PCR indicates that the patient is colonized by a Gram-negative bacillus (or Gram-negative bacilli) harboring blaOXA-48-like and/or blaVIM, respectively. A negative result indicates the absence of detectable DNA.
Cautions
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
False-negative results may occur due to inhibition of the polymerase chain reaction, sequence variability underlying primers and probes, or the presence of the blaOXA-48-like or blaVIM genes in quantities lower than the limit of detection of the assay.
Supportive Data
The assay was validated using 46 gram-negative bacilli, including 30 carbapenemase-producers (26 OXA/VIM-type, 1 NMC/IMI, 1 NDM-1, and 2 KPC), and 2 gram-positive organisms. The assay provided 100% sensitivity and specificity for both targets.
The assay detects oxacillin-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase (OXA-48-like) and Verona integron-encoded metallo-beta-lactamase (VIM) in surveillance perirectal/rectal/perianal/anal swabs and stool with the following limits of detection: OXA-48-like and VIM, 78 and 75 CFU/mL, respectively. A blinded panel of spiked perirectal/rectal/perianal/anal surveillance swabs and stool was assayed. The assay had 100% sensitivity and specificity, for both targets, in all spiked clinical samples.

Method Description

Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference
Perirectal, rectal, perianal, and anal swabs are processed in neutralization buffer tubes and organisms are lysed to release their genomic material. Fecal specimens undergo DNA extraction prior to polymerase chain-reaction (PCR). This assay amplifies and detects a specific portion of the genes encoding the oxacillin-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase (OXA-48-like) and Verona integron-encoded metallo-beta-lactamase (VIM) enzymes. The LightCycler instrument amplifies and monitors target nucleic acid sequences by fluorescence during PCR cycling. This is an automated PCR system that can rapidly detect amplified product development through stringent air-controlled temperature cycling and capillary cuvettes. The detection of amplified products is based on the fluorescent-resonance energy transfer (FRET) principle. For FRET product detection, hybridization probes with a donor fluorophore, fluorescein, on the 3' end are excited by an external light source, which emits light that is absorbed by secondary hybridization probes with acceptor fluorophores, LC-Red 610 (blaOXA-48-like) and LC-Red 670 (blaVIM) on the 5' end. The acceptor fluorophore then emits a light of a different wavelength that can be measured with a signal that is proportional to the amount of specific PCR product. The detection process is completed in less than 1 hour using a closed tube system.(Cunningham SA, Noorie T, Meunier D, Woodford N, Patel R: Rapid and simultaneous detection of genes encoding Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (blaKPC) and New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (blaNDM) in Gram-negative bacilli. J Clin Microbiol. 2013 Apr;5194):1269-1271)
