Kit Performance

It is up to all users to form their own opinion or conclusions on each kit's performance based on the accumulation of data and information that is supplied by this survey, and other information available to the participant. A variety of samples are used in this Program (undiluted, diluted and pooled serum and plasma) and this can sometimes impact on results and performance of some kits. With serum specimens, occasional artefactual problems are encountered with some kits due to changes in the matrix caused by rethrombinisation of plasma or dilution.

Clinical Notes

The “Clinical Notes” were created so as to highlight particular issues relating to interpretation of serological results. They do not necessarily reflect the clinical history of the patient from whom the sample was obtained. 3E 38 year old male reports fever and faint rash and states he visited the airport arrivals hall 10 days ago during

the time a confirmed case of measles was present.

3F 18 month old child newly adopted from South East Asia arrived 2 days ago presented febrile, with blotchy

rash on trunk.

Request

Please test both specimens for Measles serology and treat in the same manner as routine patient samples.

Specimen Details

Specimens are of human origin and tested negative for hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis C antibody and HIV. (Ref. 2014 RCPAQAP Serology Program Plan section P3:2014) 3E is a serum sample that tested positive to Measles IgG and negative to Measles IgM antibodies. 3F is a serum sample that tested positive to Measles IgG and negative to Measles IgM antibodies.

Interpretative Comments

Combination responses have been split into their appropriate option – for example, if a participant chose 3 & 5, they are counted once in each of those options. % is based on the total number of participants and not the total number of comments. Therefore, the total % adds to more than 100%.

Extra Comments 21412 Refer to another Lab. for testing.

61253 In addition to comment 2 our comment states reinfection or infection post vaccination may not produce detectable IgM. If acute infection is suspected, a dry throat swab for PCR and convalescent serology is recommended.

89342 Due to manufacturer shortages in test kit reagents survey samples were not tested.

Background Several participants were unable to participate in this survey due to manufacturing and kit supply issues. Specimen 3E The clinical notes are consistent with possible acute measles and the visit to a known location from which previous measles cases have been associated should heighten suspicion of acute measles. The patient is from a cohort of adults born between 1975 – 1981 who have been identified as having the lowest age specific population immunity due to changes in measles vaccine schedules (1). The report of this patient having been in a location in which previous cases of measles infection were identified and confirmed increases the suspicion of measles infection. Thus the critical diagnostic tests required is the measles IgM antibody assay accompanied by the measles IgG antibody assay to determine the patient’s immune status to measles and if necessary alert the referring doctor of the need for the patient to be offered a measles containing vaccine. The measles IgG antibody test alone however cannot be used for the diagnosis of acute measles infection since a positive IgG response cannot differentiate between past or current infection (see diagram below). Specimen 3F The clinical symptoms of blotchy rash and fever can typically occur during measles virus infection. This patient is from a population cohort in which numerous infections of measles have been identified. A child presented for adoption in an Asian country may not have received all necessary vaccinations prior to arriving in their new home country and there have been several outbreaks associated with newly adopted children from Asian and African countries (2). Critical serological tests required in this instance are a measles IgM antibody test. The first dose of measles containing vaccine is usually administered at 12 months; a measles IgG test will identify ongoing measles infection risk in this child and may lead to a recommendation for providing a measles containing vaccine.

Typical Measles Immune Response This figure taken from the WHO Manual for the Laboratory Diagnosis of Measles and Rubella Virus Infection(3), shows the appearance of measles clinical symptoms and the immune response with respect to time after infection. Approximately eight to ten days after infection the prodromal symptoms of fever, conjunctivitis and cough begin. At approximately the same time there is a rapid activation and expansion of virus specific CD8+ and CD4+ cells. The appearance of the

rash several days later coincides with the development of the IgM response, although IgM may not be detectable for up to four days after the initial appearance of the rash. The IgG immune response may begin at the same time as the IgM response and is detectable approximately four to five days after the IgM response the IgG sustained post recovery and thus can be used as a marker of previous exposure to the virus through infection or vaccination. Thus

the detection of IgM in a sample indicates recent infection or vaccination, and may often be detected in the presence of IgG. The presence of measles IgG alone indicates previous exposure to the virus through vaccination or past infection. Measles IgM Results and Discussion Fifty nine participants undertook testing for measles virus IgM while 13 participants indicated the specimen would be referred-on for IgM testing. Testing for measles virus IgG alone, without referral on for IgM testing, as practiced by eight participants, has previously been highlighted as an unacceptable standard of laboratory practice. Specimen 3E This specimen, which was IgM negative on pre-issue testing and by consensus among participants, was well handled. Of the fifty nine participants who tested this specimen for IgM, all agreed the specimen was negative for IgM. Twenty one participants who provided results for this survey did not test this specimen for IgM, of these 21 participants, only 13 recommended referral of this specimen to another laboratory for IgM testing which was the correct and appropriate action to take. Five participants did not test any further and provided a comment based on the IgG result alone and the remaining three participants did not test any further nor did they provide a comment. Specimen 3F This specimen, which was IgM negative on pre-issue testing and by consensus among participants, was well handled with 58 participants (98%) obtaining a negative result. Participant 89312 recorded an equivocal result; however, there appears to have been an inconsistency with the cut-off associated with this participant. Twenty one participants who provided results for this survey did not test this specimen for IgM, of these 21 participants, only 13 recommended referral of this specimen to another laboratory for IgM testing which was the correct and appropriate action to take. Five participants did not test any further and provided a comment based on the IgG result alone and the remaining three participants did not test any further nor did they provide a comment. Review of Results by Methodology The majority of participants used immunoassay technology either with enzyme or chemiluminescence detection for investigating measles virus IgM serology. Two of the 59 participants employed IFA testing. As previously noted several inconsistencies were observed with those participants testing for measles IgM. Please ensure that the cut-off used is in accordance with that stated in the kit insert in particular Participants 1061, 21092, 89277 and 89319 (DiaSorin Liaison/Liaison XL ChLIA kit), 59006 and 89343 (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Enzygnost), 89312 (Euroimmun), and 89149 (IBL). Provision of accurate kit information including lot number, expiry date and units is important for good laboratory practice and contributes to the accreditation process. Participants should be mindful that it is important to carefully document kit and test details to enable auditing and review of good laboratory procedures and practices. Measles IgG Results and Discussion Seventy seven participants undertook measles virus IgG testing. Measles IgG alone cannot provide sufficient information to determine whether or not a patient with a rash or clinical symptoms or potential exposure to measles virus is currently or recently infected with the virus. Thus measles IgG test result in the absence of a measles IgM result cannot accurately determine the infected status of an individual. Specimen 3E Seventy seven participants returned results from measles IgG testing of this specimen. This specimen, which was measles IgG positive in pre-issue testing and by consensus among participants, was well handled with a positive result obtained by 75 (97%) participants. Two participants returned results inconsistent with the consensus (41018 - equivocal, 89125 - negative).

Specimen 3F Seventy seven participants returned results from measles IgG testing of this specimen. This specimen, which was measles IgG positive in pre-issue testing and by consensus among participants, was well handled with a positive result reported by all participants. Review of Results by Methodology Two participants used commercial IFA assays. Both participants determined both specimens to be IgG positive. Other participants utilised EIA, ELFA, Multiplex and Chemiluminescence platforms using the BioRad Platelia, DiaSorin Liaison/Liaison XL, Diesse Diagnostica Chorus, Euroimmun Triturus, Genzyme Virotech, Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Enzygnost, bioMerieux Vidas-Mini Vidas and Trinity Biotech Captia kits. It was noted that several participants provided inconsistent/inaccurate information relating to kit lot details and expiry dates. Provision of accurate kit information including lot number, expiry date and units is important for good laboratory practice and contributes to the accreditation process. Participants should be mindful that it is important to carefully document kit and test details to enable auditing and review of good laboratory procedures and practices. Review of Results and Conclusions The concordance of results for both specimens was very high. More than 75% of the participants performed IgM or referred specimen to another laboratory for IgM testing on both specimens. According to the WHO recommended actions (3) when investigating a suspected measles case, a laboratory may use one of the following methods for investigating a case of suspected measles:

1. Detection of measles specific IgM 2. IgG seroconversion or a 4-fold or greater rise in titre to measles virus where the 2nd sample is collected >10

days after the first acute sample (acute and convalescent sample should be tested in parallel) Furthermore specimens which are positive for suspected measles infection should be sent to an approved or certified reference laboratory for confirmation. Global measles elimination is a WHO recommended and adopted policy and all suspected cases of measles should be tested rapidly and results (especially IgM positive results) conveyed to appropriate health authorities as soon as possible. Interpretative Comments Interpretative comments should be based on the combined IgG and IgM results and if possible in conjunction with any clinical symptoms provided by the clinician. As can be seen from the diagram above, in the majority of cases IgM is detectable before (or at the same time) as IgG. Thus detection of IgG alone (i.e. IgM negative) is usually indicative of past exposure (through infection or vaccination) and thus immunity to infection. The presence of IgM in the absence of IgG should be reported to health authorities as soon as possible and the specimen retested for confirmation of IgM status (to rule out false positive). Specimen 3E This specimen was by consensus determined to be IgG positive and IgM negative, thus the appropriate comment was Comment 2 “serological evidence of past infection or vaccination/immunisation”. Inclusion of Comment 3 “no serological evidence of recent infection” could also have been included by those participants who performed both IgG and IgM testing. For those participants who did not perform IgM testing, the specimen should have been referred to another laboratory and thus in this case Comment 8 “refer to another laboratory for IgM testing, await IgM result for appropriate comment” should have been returned to the requesting physician. For those participants who only perform IgG testing the most appropriate comment would have been Comment 5 “send repeat specimen in 10-14 days if clinically indicated” in addition to Comment 2. Nine participants (1061, 1148, 89057, 89149, 89153, 89178, 89237, 89305 and 89312) chose not to make any interpretative comments. Interpretative comments can be a critical aspect of diagnostic testing for the clinician and patient and should be considered an essential component of the overall result.

Participant 89125 obtained an incorrect test result, but provided the correct interpretation and comment related to the test result obtained. Specimen 3F This specimen was by consensus determined to be IgG positive and IgM negative, thus the appropriate comment was Comment 2. Inclusion of Comment 3 could also have been included by those participants who performed both IgG and IgM testing. The presence of IgG in conjunction with IgM reflects the development of the immune response (see diagram above) and not a previous and current infection at the same time. For those participants who did not perform IgM testing, the specimen should have been referred to another laboratory and thus in this case Comment 8 should have been returned to the requesting physician. For those participants who only perform IgG testing the most appropriate comment would have been Comment 5. Nine participants (1061, 1148, 89057, 89149, 89153, 89178, 89237, 89305 and 89312) chose not to make any interpretative comments.
