Relevant clinical information
Antibiotics usage
Laboratory test required
Patient-Collected Specimens
Urine, Sputum, Stool, Semen
Never be assumed that the patient knows how to collect
Printed instruction: will be read? understand?
Verbal, pictures and written
Mid stream urine ( Clean catch urine,
urin porsi tengah)
Urine Supra pubic puncture
Urinary Catheter
Urine
Swab
Upper respiratory tract, external ear, eye, genital tract
Tips of swab: Cotton: excessive fatty acids, toxic to
certain bacteria
Dacron or polyester
Transport media: protect the specimen from drying
Swabs for Wounds
Aspirate or biopsy sample is much better
Anaerobes on swab die upon exposure to air but survive in tissue and fluid
Swabs hold only 150 µl of fluid
Can become dried out, leading to a loss of organisms
Upper Respiratory Tract Throat Swab
Upper respiratory tract, external ear, eye, genital tract
Tips of swab: Cotton: excessive fatty acids, toxic to
certain bacteria
Dacron or polyester
Transport media: protect the specimen from drying

Lower Respiratory Tract
Sputum Bronchial washing Bronchial brushing Bronchoalveolar
lavage Transtracheal
aspiration Tracheal aspiration
GENITAL TRACT SPECIMENS
For Females
Cervical specimens should be collected after removing excess mucous from the cervical os and surrounding mucosa
Use a second swab to collect specimen by rotating the swab for 10 to 30 secs. in the endocervical canal
Collect vaginal specimens using a speculum without any lubricant
GENITAL TRACT SPECIMENS
For males
Urethral specimens are collected by inserting a swab 2 to 4 cm. into the urethra and rotating the swab for 2 to 3 seconds
GENITAL TRACT SPECIMENS
For HSV lesions
Fluid from lesions should be aspirated using a syringe
Swab can be used to collect vesicle fluid or cellular material from the base of the lesion before crusting and healing have begun

Number of blood specimens
Blood volume
Adults: bacteria <30 CFU/ml, more blood that is cultured, the greater the chance of isolating the organism
Infants: bacteria >1000 CFU/ml
Blood Volume in children

Anticoagulation
Entrapped bacteria within a clot may go undetected
Inoculated into sterile tube containing an anticoagulant for transport to the laboratory
Heparin, EDTA, Citrate : not recommended
SPS (Sodium polyanethol sulfonate)
0,025-0,03%
SPS : anticoagulant, anti-complementary, anti-phagocytic, interferes activity of some antibiotics
Inhibit Neisseria spp., Gardnerella vaginalis, Streptobacillus moniliformis, Peptostreptococcus anaerobius
Specimen Rejection
Suboptimal specimens
Require a phone call to the person in charge of collecting specimen
Lab never discharge specimen before contacting the health care team
In certain situation it may be necessary to process suboptimal specimen
notation in final report!
A rejected specimen is not a repudiation of the health care provider who submitted it.
It is simply a request for a new specimen that will provide the clinically information necessary for good patient care.
Microbiology Investigation:
Microscopic
Culture and susceptibility tests
Serology: Antigen detection
Antibody detection
Molecular: Detection of nucleic acid
Gram staining : report
The presence of host cells and debris
The Gram reactions, morphologies, and arrangement of bacterial cells present. Reporting the absence of bacteria and host cells can be equally as important
Optionally, the relative amounts of bacterial cells (rare, few, moderate, many) may be provided
Post- Analytical Phase of Testing
Result transcription
Result delivery
Result review
Action taken on basis of result
“report it all and let the doctor decide……..”
does not take into account the reality of
“If the microbiologist names it, the physician feels obliged to treat it”
Factors to consider When Determining Whether Testing is Warranted
The body site from which the organism was isolated
The presence of other bacteria and the quality of the specimen from which the organism was grown
The host’s status
Pharyngitis
Normal pharyngeal flora: Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA
Streptococcus pneumoniae
Haemophilus influenzae
Neisseria meningitidis
Should not be reported unless there is a special communication to microbiologist
Nose cultures
Not predictive of the etiologic agents of sinus, middle ear, or lower respiratory tract infections
Pathogen directed:
Screening of MRSA
Detection of Bordetella pertusis
Urine culture
105 CFU/ml urine in asymptomatic patient
102 CFU/ml urine in patient with clinical sign and symptom of UTI
group B streptococci:
Pregnant women: any amount have implications for the fetus
Female 12-55: >50 CFU/ml urine
Relevant clinical information ??
Interpretation: Blood Culture
Probable contaminant: Bacillus spp, Corynebacterium spp.,
Propionibacterium acnes, or coagulase(-) staphylococcis in only one of several cultures
multiple organisms from only one of several cultures
The clinical presentation and/or course is not consistent with sepsis
The organism causing the infection at a primary site of infection is not the same as that isolated from the blood culture
Interpretation: Blood Cultures
Probable pathogen the same organism in repeated cultures obtained
either at different times or from different anatomic sites
certain organisms in culture obtained from patients suspected of endocarditis
certain organisms such as members of Enterobacteriaceae, S. pneumoniae, gram-neg anaerobes, and S. pyogenes
commensal microbial flora from e.g. immunosuppressed patients or those having prosthetic devices
How susceptibility is reported: zone diameter (mm) vs. RIS+3 vs. RIS
There is no very-, super- or hyper-sensitive organism
Killing of a “sensitive” bacteria in vivo is a multi-factorial event
It is NOT recommended to report S+1~3 or sensitive, very sensitive, or most sensitive. It is EXTREMELY misleading!
Interpretative Reading of Antibiotics Susceptibility Test
Recognizing unusual results
Recognizing drugs best avoided owing to their risk of selecting resistance in the particular pathogen
Using “indicator” drugs
DM.Livermore, TG Winstanley, KP Shannon. J.of
Antimicrobial Chemotherapy (2001) 48, Suppl.S1
Recognizing Unusual Results: Resistance requiring confirmation
Examples
S.aureus
Any of: vancomycin, teicoplanin. linezolid
Streptococcus pneumoniae
Any of: Meropenem, vancomycin, teicoplanin, linezolid
Enterobacteriaceae
Meropenem, imipenem
Neisseria gonorrhoeae
Any third-generation cephalosporin
Anaerobes in general
metronidazole
Natural Resistance Typical of Common Pathogens
Examples
Acinetobacter baumannii
Ampicillin, amoxycillin, 1st gen. cephalosporin
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Ampicillin, amoxycillin, 1st and 2nd gen. cephalosporin, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, nalidic acid, trimethoprim
Salmonella spp.
Cefuroxime (active in vitro, not active in vivo)
Proteus vulgaris
Ampicillin, amoxycillin, cefuroxime, colistin, nitrofurantoin
Strepococcus pneumoniae
Trimethoprim, amynoglycoside
Using “indicator” drugs
Examples
MRSA: resistant to all β-lactams
ESBL (ceftazidime, cefpodoxime, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone): avoid all cephalosporin
N.gonorrhoeae (nalidixic acid): indicate reduced susceptibility to fluoroquinolones
Multiple Drugs Resistant Organisms (MDROs)
Microorganisms, predominantly bacteria, that are resistant to one or more classes of antimicrobial agents
Although the names of certain MDROs describe resistance to only one agent, these pathogens are frequently resistant to most available antimicrobial agents
MDROs
Resistant Staphylococcus aureus : MRSA, VISA, VRSA
Vancomycin Resistant Enterococcus (VRE)
Gram Negatif Bacteria (GNB):
Extended Spectrum β-Lactamase
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Acinetobacter baumanii
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Bulkhoderia cepacia
Multi-Drugs Resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae (MDRSP)
Extended Spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs)
Bacteria have the ability to hydrolyze and cause resistance to the 3rd-generation Cephalosporins and monobactams but not the cephamycins and carbapenems
Beta-lactamase inhibitors (clavulanic acid, sulbactam, and tazobactam) generally inhibit ESBL producing strains
Important reason for therapy failure with cephalosporins and have serious consequences for infection control
Other MDROs
Plasmid mediated AmpC β-lactamases K.pneumoniae, E.coli, Salmonella spp. Spectrum of resistant: Penicillin, Cephalosporine,
Cephamycin, Monobactam
Carbapenem hydrolizing enzymes (CHE) class B: metallo-β-lactamases P.aeruginosa, Acinetobacter spp. Enterobacteriaceae (rare) Spectrum of resistant: Penicillin, Cephalosporine,
Cephamycin, Carbapenems
CHE class A: Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase K.pneumoniae, E.coli Spectrum of resistant: Penicillin, Cephalosporine,
Cephamycin, Carbapenems
Clinical Importance of MDROs
Clinical manifestations are similar to infections caused by susceptibility pathogens
Option for treating patients with these infections are often extremely limited
Patients with MDROs stay in hospital longer, at higher cost
Higher mortality
Factors, affect transmission and spread
environmental factors, both in the hospital and the community
the use of antibiotics
the antimicrobial fitness of the pathogen
Phenotypic Identification: Problem
Many significant pathogens cannot be grown reliably by current methodologies
Cultivation-dependent
methods entail long delays for many pathogens (fastidious)
Legionella pneumophila
Chlamydia pneumoniae
Phenotypic Identification: Problem
Some phenotypes displayed by a single organism may vary as a function of the particular growth condition used in the laboratory
A single phenotype may be generated by any of a number of highly variable gene products or combination thereof
Detection of toxin or other virulence factors
Problem Solving?
Alternative tests:
Serology
Nucleic Acid Amplification : PCR
Antigen detection
Microbial-specific structural components (antigens) are identified in specimens obtained from an infected host
Can be used to identify microorganisms once they have been recovered in culture
Methods depends on the fact that some microbial components are chemically unique and form areas on the molecule known as antigenic determinants
Antigen can be recognized by and can combine specifically with antibody molecules to form stable products
Antibody detection
IgM antibodies
detected earlier in the infection (7-10 days)
Usually indicative of active, as opposed to past, infection
IgG antibodies
Previous infections or immunization
Serodiagnosis of an infectious diseases requires measurement of IgG concentration on both acute-phase and convalescent-phase serum specimens
Chronic infections, epidemiology
False-Negative Serologic test results
Negative result for a patient who really is infected May not have an intact immune system, and therefore
may not be able to respond to an antigenic stimulus Congenital or acquired immunodeficiency diseases Receiving either immunosuppressive therapy after
organ transplantation or cancer chemotherapy
Neonates may not always respond to an infectious agent because their immune system are not fully mature
For some infections (e.g. legionaires’ disease) antibody titers may not rise until months after acute infection
False-Positive Serologic test results
Positive result for a patient who is not infected by the specific agent for which the test is design
Production of cross-reacting antibody
Some antigen associated with different microorganisms are closely related and a host may respond by producing antibody not only to the invading organism but also to antigenically closely related organism
Reactivation of a latent organism due to infection by a different organism
Receiving intravenous immunoglobulin
Gene amplification by PCR
PCR can be used to amplify a specific DNA sequence to produce millions of copies within a few hours
Post-PCR analysis
Confirmation of the PCR product by agarose-gel electrophoresis
Hybridization with oligonucleotide probes
‘real time’ PCR
The use of specifically constructed PCR primers that fluoresce when incorporated into PCR-generated amplicons
RT-PCR
RNA may be amplified after it has been converted to DNA by the enzyme reverse transcriptase
Limitations of PCR:
Clinical significance of positive PCR
PCR assays may detect pathogens at concentration below those of previously established gold standard reference methods Development of reliable quantitative
measures of pathogen load
PCR assay detect both viable and non-
viable organisms RNA detection is more accurate indicator of
viable microorganisms
