NCT02640001

Brief Summary

In patients on mechanical ventilation, it is not known whether the identification of S. aureus in LRT samples improves the performance of its nasal detection. To assess the MSSA or MRSA carrier status of patients requiring mechanical ventilation for more than 48 hours after major heart surgery: comparing the performance of the diagnostic technique Xpert® SA Nasal Complete assay in nasal swab and LRT samples.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Staphylococcus aureus presence in nasal and respiratory tract samples

    diagnostic technique Xpert® SA Nasal Complete assay in nasal swab and LRT samples.

    every 7 days from date of randomization, an average of two weeks

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

All patients admitted to the Heart Surgery-ICU

You may qualify if:

  • Adults (≥ 18 years)
  • Signed Informed consent
  • Patient admitted to the HS-ICU before or after undergoing heart surgery
  • Patient on mechanical ventilation for \>2 calendar days on the date of event (suspicion of LRT infection) ), taking the day of ventilator placement as day 1
  • Patient with a tracheal tube in whom nasal and LRT secretions can be simultaneously obtained. Patients may also be included if LRT samples can be obtained via a different approach (tracheostomy, fibrobroncoscopy etc.).
