Abstract
OBJECTIVES: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are a major public-health threat. The most important mechanism of carbapenem resistance in CRE is carbapenemase production. Early identification of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) leads to improved clinical outcomes. This systematic review aimed to assess the accuracy and applicability of the modified Hodge test (MHT), the carbapenemase Nordmann-Poirel (Carba NP) test, the modified carbapenem inactivation method (mCIM) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/MS) for CPE detection. METHODS: The meta-analysis included pooled sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic odds ratio, and summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve and area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS: A total of 67 studies were included in the analysis. Pooled effect sizes (95% confidence interval) of the MHT, Carba NP, mCIM and MALDI-TOF/MS, respectively, were as follows: sensitivity, 92% (87-95%), 97% (94-98%), 99% (99-100%) and 99% (96-100%); specificity, 93% (86-97%), 100% (99-100%), 99% (96-100%) and 99% (96-100%); diagnostic odds ratio, 98.156 (48.175-199.995), 1277.710 (751.391-2172.692), 3597.352 (1287.575-10000) and 1781.360 (651.827-4868.228); and AUC, 0.97, 1, 1 and 1. CONCLUSION: Carba NP, mCIM and MALDI-TOF/MS all demonstrated high accuracy in CPE detection, whereas the MHT is not recommended owing to some clear drawbacks. We recommend the selection of carbapenemase detection tests in the order of mCIM, Carba NP and MALDI-TOF/MS according to their simplicity, cost, and equipment and skills involved.
