1 Product Code IF1250M Rev. I Performance Characteristics Not for Distribution in the United States EXPECTED VALUES Community Acquired Pneumonia Population Two outside investigators assessed the Focus Chlamydia MIF IgM and the Focus Chlamydia MIF IgG ("Focus MIFs") with a total of 144 community acquired pneumonia patients. 141 of the 144 were sequentially selected, and three patients were selected because they were PCR positive for C. pneumoniae. Each patient was an adult outpatient, and their pneumonia was confirmed with a positive chest x-ray. Serum samples were drawn twice, the first serum was drawn 2 weeks or more postonset of symptoms, and the second serum was drawn 3 to 6 weeks after the first. Each patient was tested for C. pneumoniae, Legionella pneumophila, Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Streptococcus pneumoniae. C. pneumoniae testing included culture, PCR, and reference MIFs (IgG and IgM) from a university in the Pacific Northwest. Legionella pneumophila testing included serology (polyvalent antibody), urinary antigen and PCR. Mycoplasma pneumoniae testing included culture, PCR and serology (IgG and IgM). Streptococcus pneumoniae testing included urinary antigen. The observed prevalences and the hypothetical predictive values for the population are shown in the tables below. Community Acquired Pneumonia Outpatients Prevalence vs. Pathogen Prevalence C. pneumoniae (presumed and possible acute) 12.8% C. pneumoniae (presumed acute) 3.5% C. pneumoniae (possible acute) 9.2% Undifferentiated Chlamydia (presumed acute) 0.7% Legionella pneumophila 2.8% Mycoplasma pneumoniae 13.5% Streptococcus pneumoniae 8.5% Unidentified Pathogen, including C. trachomatis (past infection) C. trachomatis (possible acute) C. psittaci (past infection) 61.0% PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS Reactivity with Community Acquired Pneumonia Patients Two outside investigators evaluated the Focus MIF IgM and IgG (Focus MIFs) reactivity with a total of 144 community acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients. The patients and test methods are described in the EXPECTED VALUES section (above). Focus MIF reactivity was calculated for the IgM MIF alone, the IgG MIF alone and the combined reactivity of both of the Focus MIF IgM and Focus MIF IgG ("Combined Focus MIFs"). Predictive values are based on the estimated reactivity of both of the Focus MIF IgM and Focus MIF IgG combined ("Combined Focus MIFs") for C. pneumoniae: 99.8% (85/86) specificity with the combined Focus MIFs, 87.5% (7/8) sensitivity with the combined Focus MIFs, 37.5% (3/8) sensitivity with the Focus MIF IgM, and 62.5% (5/8) sensitivity with the Focus MIF IgG. 99.8% (85/86) specificity with the Focus MIF IgG.
