Evaluation of the Performance of the IDBIORIV Method in Pathogen Identification and Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing in Patients With Sepsis

Sepsis is a disruption of homeostasis in the human body in response to bloodstream infection and is associated with a high risk of mortality. Worldwide, sepsis is affecting approximately 30 million people and resulting in six million deaths. Blood culture is a specific blood sample used to identifying microbial agent (bacterium or yeast) and determine the sensitivity of these microorganisms to antibiotics and antifungals. Any delay in identifying the microorganism and/or determining the AST (antibiotic susceptibility testing) has a direct impact on the administration of appropriate antibiotic treatment and, consequently, on mortality of the patient. The faster the diagnosis, the faster the antibiotic treatment will be adapted, the higher the survival rate/probability of patients, and the lower the ecological impact. In routine, clinical microbiology laboratories currently use 2 automatized techniques: MALDI-TOF MS® for microorganisms identification and VITEK2® method for AST determination. Based on a proteomic approach, the IDBIORIV method is a rapid method (90 minutes) in comparison of current methods (24/48 hours) able to identifying a large panel of 113 pathogens and determine the antibiotic resistance profile of 49 species for 4 classes of antibiotics (Beta-lactams, Aminosides, Glycopeptides, Colistin). The main objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of the IDBIORIV method in pathogen identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing in comparison…
