Indwelling Device-associated Biofilms (BiofilmICU)
Indwelling Device-associated Biofilms in Oncological Critically Ill Patients
Healthcare associated infections linked to the use of indwelling medical devices increase hospital morbidity, mortality and the Intensive Care treatment costs. The essential strategy for mitigating these consequences are prompt source identifcation and control, with appropriate antimicrobial therapy initiation as soon as possible. Removing the source is one of the golden rule for infection control. Early identification of the responsible germs is the other major guiding element for the appropriate anti-infectious treatment.
Despite multiple detection/identification methods, there are no clear recommendations for biofilm identification in clinical practice. The gold standard method is bacterial/fungal culturing, with disadvantages related to late results, especially for slow growing, fastidious germs or related to the existence of uncultivable strains.
In order to obtain more sensitive, specific results and to increase the chances of better biofilm characterization, in the present study the investigators compare biofilm identification results obtained by standard cultivation methods with those by DNA amplification and next generation gene sequencing. The studied biofilm is associated to four criticallly ill oncological patients indwelling devices (endotracheal tube, central venous catheter, arterial catheter and urinary catheter).

Detailní popis
According to Regional Institute of Oncology, Iasi protocols, all septic patients with the need of invasive ventilatory support (endotracheal intubation), have concomitantly inserted a CVC, an AC and a UC, as standard of care. All patients undergo the protocol for the management of suspected/proven sepsis: initial resuscitation, specimen collection for microbiology/molecular biology tests, empirical/targeted anti-infectious treatment, source control, multiple organ support and treatment of the underlying disease/comorbidities. All RIO patients are screened for nasal, pharyngeal and rectal pathogen colonization at the time of hospital/ICU admission.
Informed consent - During the first 24 hours of ICU admission, all eligible patients will receive written information about the study: its implementation, aims, expected advantages and possible risks, and they will be asked to sign an informed consent. If the patient is unable to give consent at ICU admission due to pathological or drug-induced acute alteration of consciousness, a legal representative may give authorization. Once the participant regains the decision capacity, the individual will be asked to confirm or withdraw consent.
Swab sampling - The nasal, pharyngeal and rectal screening swab sampling is collected according to standard methods. In addition to this standard screening, in the first 24 hours of ICU admission cutaneous samples from the groin area of enrolled patients will be obtained, with sterile Copan eSwabTM swabs, a product recommended for aerobic, anaerobic and fastidious microbial agents.
Biofilm sampling and transport - The extraction of the four ID (ET, CVC, AC, UC) will be performed when the clinical condition of the patient dictates it (suspected catheter infection/no further need due to improvement or death). These devices will be extracted by medical ICU personnel, only at the indication and according to the medical judgment of the clinician, without being influenced by the patient's study participation.
Microbiological processing and analysis of the biofilm - Microbiological analysis will be performed by standard method: sample seeding on standard culture media, then biochemical identification test and AST according to CLSI standards and guidelines using MicroScan Walk Away 40 plus®, Beckmann Coulter automatic system compatible pannels.
Molecular biology processing and analysis of the biofilm - After complete sample collection, gene sequencing of the variable regions V3-V4 16S rRNA gene will be performed using Illumina MiSeq® Next Generation Sequencer System.
