RAPid SOlution for Diagnosis of Respiratory Infection in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (RAPSODI)

January 28, 2022 updated by: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

Diagnostic Validity of a New Strategy for the Rapid Detection of Microorganisms and Their Resistance to Antibiotics Responsible for Pneumonia in Pediatric Intensive Care Units Using Protected Distal Samples

In patients with infectious pneumonitis, the FILMARRAY® Pneumonia Plus Panel technique (multiplex PCR) on a respiratory sample makes it possible to identify the responsible pathogen and its resistance to antibiotics in less than an hour and therefore to quickly adapt the anti- infectious. FILMARRAY® Pneumonia Plus has been validated on two types of specimens from adult intubated patients, tracheal aspirations and bronchoalveolar lavage. It has not been validated on protected distal samples which are nevertheless used in current practice. This project will study the diagnostic validity of this technique performed on this type of sample. If the validity is demonstrated, this will allow this technique to be used on the protected distal sample which is a reliable sample and used in the context of respiratory infections, in particular acquired under ventilation in children (bronchoalveolar lavage is less easy and little used in practice in children).

Detailed Description

In patients with infectious pneumonitis, the FILMARRAY® Pneumonia Plus Panel technique (multiplex PCR) on a respiratory sample makes it possible to identify the responsible pathogen and its resistance to antibiotics in less than an hour and therefore to quickly adapt the anti- infectious. FILMARRAY® Pneumonia Plus has been validated on two types of specimens from adult intubated patients, tracheal aspirations and bronchoalveolar lavage. It has not been validated on protected distal samples which are nevertheless used in current practice. This project will study the diagnostic validity of this technique performed on this type of sample. If the validity is demonstrated, this will allow this technique to be used on the protected distal sample which is a reliable sample and used in the context of respiratory infections, in particular acquired under ventilation in children (bronchoalveolar lavage is less easy and little used in practice in children).

As a result, this will allow a faster etiological diagnosis and adapted antibiotic therapy, guaranteeing better efficacy and a fairer antibiotic prescription.

Currently no studies concerning the FILMARRAY® Pneumonia Plus Panel are ongoing or have been performed with the protected distal samples.

This study would be innovative and unique in looking at its feasibility and validity on a type of sample used in current practice.

In addition, the use of a PCR-based technique allows a rapid microbiological diagnosis of lower respiratory infections under invasive mechanical ventilation, compared to the reference technique requiring 48 to 72 hours to give a definitive result.

This much shorter period allows for an appropriate antibiotic therapy early in the treatment, and potentially a reduction in ventilation and hospitalization times.

In addition, it detects antibiotic resistance genes allowing rapid identification of multi-resistant bacteria (resistant Staphylococcus aureus meticillin, enterobacteria producing ESBLs or carbapenemases) and thus adapting antibiotic therapy.

Our study will assess its diagnostic validity for the identification of the microorganisms responsible for pneumonia in intensive care and their resistance to antibiotics.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

1 day to 18 years (Child, Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
concordance between the results of the FILMARRAY® Pneumonia on a protected distal sample (new strategy) and those obtained by culture and antibiogram (classic diagnosis, reference method)
Time Frame: 1 week
Percentage of diagnostic agreement between the FilmArray result carried out on protected distal samples and the result of the reference method and description of the microorganisms most frequently found in cases of discrepancies.
1 week

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To establish the percentage of invalid analyzes on this type of sample.
Time Frame: 24 months
Number of invalid analyzes out of the total number of analyzes performed on protected sample with the FilmArray.
24 months
Rate of true positives (agreement of positive results between new strategy and reference method)
Time Frame: 24 months
24 months
Rate of true negatives (agreement of negative results between new strategy and reference method).
Time Frame: 24 months
24 months
To establish the diagnostic time saving in real life use.
Time Frame: 24 months
Differential in final rendering time between the new strategy and the reference method.
24 months
Number of diagnoses adjusted on the number of diagnoses sought in children whose sample was taken after antibiotic therapy.
