Description

The Revogene® Carba C assay, performed on the Revogene® instrument, is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test designed for the detection and differentiation of the blaKPC, blaNDM, blaVIM, blaOXA-48-like, and blaIMP gene sequences associated with carbapenem-non-susceptible pure colonies of Enterobacteriaceae, Acinetobacter baumannii, or Pseudomonas aeruginosa, when grown on blood agar or MacConkey agar. The test utilizes automated real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). The Revogene Carba C assay should be used in conjunction with other laboratory tests including phenotypic antimicrobial susceptibility testing. A negative Revogene Carba C assay result does not preclude the presence of other resistance mechanisms. The Revogene Carba C assay is intended as an aid for infection control in the detection of carbapenem-non-susceptible bacteria that colonize patients in healthcare settings. The identification of a blaIMP, blaNDM or blaVIM metallo-B-lactamase gene (i.e., the genes that encode the IMP, NDM and VIM metallo-B-lactamases, respectively) may be used as an aid to clinicians in determining appropriate therapeutic strategies for patients with known or suspected carbapenem non-susceptible infections.
