NCT01898208

Brief Summary

Would rapid identification of bacteria and rapid detection of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) (using an FDA-cleared assay) in positive blood culture bottles improve patient care at Mayo Clinic Rochester (or just lead to increased cost)?

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Duration of Antimicrobial Therapy (Hours)

    Difference between the date and time of the antibiotic start order (or Gram stain-positive blood culture, if antibiotics were started prior to the positive culture result) and the date and time of the antibiotic stop order. Shorter duration of broad spectrum antibiotics and longer duration of narrow-spectrum antibiotics were considered favorable outcomes.

    Approximately 4 days after enrollment

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Time From Positive Gram Stain to First Active Antibiotic

    Approximately 14 days after positive blood culture

  • Time to First Appropriate De-escalation or First Appropriate Escalation of Antibiotics

    Positive Gram stain, 96 hours after enrollment

  • Percent of Contaminated Blood Cultures Not Treated or Treated for Less Than 24 Hours

    Within 14 days after positive blood culture

  • Time to Pathogen Identification

    Approximately 14 days after positive blood culture

  • Number of Subjects Who Had Negative Blood Cultures Within 3 Days After Enrollment

    3 Days after enrollment

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Length of Intensive Care Unit Stay

    within 14 days of positive blood culture until ICU discharge

  • Percentage of Patients Who Acquired Clostridium Difficile or Multidrug-resistant Organisms Within 30 Days After Enrollment

    Approximately 30 days after positive blood culture

Study Arms (3)

Control

EXPERIMENTAL

Standard Mayo practices (bacterial culture and susceptibility testing) will be used. FilmArray testing will not be performed.

Other: Bacterial cultureOther: Susceptibility testing

FilmArray test

EXPERIMENTAL

Standard Mayo practices will be used AND FilmArray testing will be performed. Results of the FilmArray Blood Culture ID Panel test will be communicated to the service by phone in real-time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Device: FilmArray testingOther: Bacterial cultureOther: Susceptibility testing

FilmArray plus antimicrobial stewardship

EXPERIMENTAL

Standard Mayo practices will be used. FilmArray testing will be performed and reported as above, for intervention group 1. IN ADDITION, an expert will review the subject's FilmArray Blood Culture ID Panel result and medical record and contact the primary service if a modification of antimicrobial therapy may be appropriate.

Device: FilmArray testingBehavioral: Antimicrobial StewardshipOther: Bacterial cultureOther: Susceptibility testing

Interventions

FilmArray Blood Culture Identification (BCID) Panel is a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) panel that identifies 19 types of bacteria, 5 types of fungi, and select antimicrobial-resistance genes.

Also known as: FilmArray Blood Culture Identification Panel
FilmArray plus antimicrobial stewardshipFilmArray test

Real time antimicrobial stewardship: an infectious diseases pharmacist or physician will provide patient-specific recommendations to modify antimicrobial therapy.

FilmArray plus antimicrobial stewardship

This test identifies the pathogen responsible for an infection.

ControlFilmArray plus antimicrobial stewardshipFilmArray test

Antibiotic susceptibility testing determines the susceptibility of a bacterial strain to a specific antibiotic or a panel of antibiotics. Antibiotic susceptibility testing determines the susceptibility of a bacterial strain to a specific antibiotic or a panel of antibiotics.
