2 Walking through a minefield of acronyms Acronym Better to spell it out! Translation Defined by CRE Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae Must be Enterobacteriaceae and resistant to carbapenems. May or may not produce a carbapenemase AST CRO Carbapenem-resistant organisms Any carbapenem-resistant species (strictly, also those with intrinsic resistance). May or may not produce a carbapenemase. AST CPE Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae Must be Enterobacteriaceae and produce a carbapenemase. May or may not be resistant to carbapenems. Mechanism detection CPO Carbapenemase-producing organisms Any carbapenemase-producing species (strictly, also those with intrinsic carbapenemases). May or may not be resistant to carbapenems. Mechanism detection So, CPEs are always CPOs and may also be CREs or CROs (unless they have low MICs); every CRE is a CRO, but not every CRE or CRO is a CPE or a CPO 2 CRO and CPE: Epidemiology and diagnostic tests SMVN Meeting 2016 Crown copyright

34 Molecular diagnostics to guide empiric therapy Current molecular tests to detect/infer resistance mechanisms are surrogates for rapid susceptibility testing Absence of a resistance mechanism doesn t confirm susceptibility cannot indicate appropriate empiric therapy Presence of a resistance mechanism used to infer likely resistance false resistance (unexpressed/partial genes) Indicates potentially inappropriate empiric therapy carbapenemase detected: carbapenem NOT suitable as sole agent Still need to culture organism for : AST still essential to confirm susceptibility for patient treatment Typing needed to investigate transmission 34 CRO and CPE: Epidemiology and diagnostic tests SMVN Meeting 2016 Crown copyright
