Introduction: Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are major cause of community as well as healthcare associated infections and have limited treatment options. Measuring the magnitude of the problem of CRE, it is important for making strategies to lower its spread. Aim: To assess the incidence and prevalence rate of CRE in a tertiary care hospital of Gujarat, India. Materials and Methods: Retrospective data was collected for a period from 2014 to 2018 using Laboratory Information System (LIS). Prevalence of CRE was determined as number of CRE isolated per 100 Enterobacteriaceae isolated during the study period whereas incidence rate was determined as number of CRE cases per 1000 patient-days. Consumption of Carbapenems was calculated as Defined Daily Dose (DDD) per 1000 patient-days. Demographic data including age, gender, location in the hospital and sample type from which CRE was isolated was also analysed using Microsoft Excel. Results: The incidence of CRE cases per 1000 patient-days in 2014 to 2018 was 1.66, 2.11, 1.90, 2.26 and 1.91, respectively with an overall incidence of 1.99 per 1000 patient-days. The overall prevalence of CRE over a period of five years was found to be 29.07%. Klebsiellasp. was the most common CRE and had the highest percentage of Carbapenem resistance among all Enterobacteriaceae. Conclusion: The rate of CRE in present study was high and worrisome. Screening of the patient for CRE, source isolation and stringent implementation of infection control practices is required to confine the spread of CRE in this institute.

Carbapenem Resistant Enterobacteriaceae

The worldwide spread and increasing prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) is of utmost concern and a problem for public health. This resistance is mainly conferred by carbapenemase production. Such strains are a potential source of outbreaks in healthcare settings and are associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. In this study, we aimed to determine the dominance of NDM-producing Enterobacteriaceae at a teaching hospital in Karachi. A total of 238 Enterobacteriaceae isolates were collected from patients admitted to Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre (Unit 4) in Karachi, Pakistan, a tertiary care hospital. Phenotypic and genotypic methods were used for detection of metallo-β-lactamase. Out of 238 isolates, 52 (21.8%) were CRE and 50 isolates were carbapenemase producers, as determined by the CARBA NP test; two isolates were found negative for carbapenemase production by CARB NP and PCR. Four carbapenemase-producing isolates phenotypically appeared negative for metallo-β-lactamase (MBL). Of the 52 CRE isolates, 46 (88.46%) were blaNDM positive. Most of the NDM producers were Klebsiella pneumoniae, followed by Enterobacter cloacae and Escherichia coli. In all the NDM-positive isolates, the blaNDM gene was found on plasmid. These isolates were found negative for the VIM and IPM MBLs. All the CRE and carbapenem-sensitive isolates were sensitive to colistin. It is concluded that the NDM is the main resistance mechanism against carbapenems and is dominant in this region.

BACKGROUND In an infection caused by multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, carbapenems is one the last antibiotics used, but the carbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae pose a clinical challenge. A relatively new test which was described few years back known as modified carbapenem inactivation method (mCIM) is used to detect the presence of carbapenemase activity in Gramnegative bacilli. Various studies show this test be to be very sensitive and specific. We aim to study mCIM positivity on samples which are positive by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion antibiotic sensitivity test method used for detection of carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) from clinical specimens. METHODS The study is a cross sectional descriptive study conducted in a tertiary care hospital. Samples received from February 2019 to September 2019 were included in the study. During this period 150 samples were collected which were resistant to meropenem by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. These CREs isolates were further subjected to mCIM and the result was analysed. RESULTS Out of the total 150 CRE isolates which were 100 % resistant to meropenem by the conventional disc diffusion method it is found that mCIM was positive for 148 (98.66 %) isolates and negative for only 02 (1.33 %). Two most common CRE were Klebsiella pneumonia (58 %) and Escherichia coli (32 %). In statistical analysis chi square test revealed statistically significant difference (P < 0.05) in percentage of positivity between the two methods (98.66 % vs 100 %). CONCLUSIONS mCIM is highly sensitive and specific method; however, in practice it showed no added advantage over Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method in detecting CRE.
