Objectives• Describe laboratory tests available for detection
of influenza infection
• Identify strengths and weaknesses of traditional and molecular laboratory tests for Influenza
• Discuss FDA ruling on Rapid antigen tests
• Describe the potential clinical impact of rapid molecular testing for influenza

Introduction• Respiratory viral illness is one of the most common infection in
children and adults
• Influenza and RSV cause seasonal outbreaks; early diagnosis improves care.
• Non-influenza respiratory illness are also common; estimated at 500 million/year, economic impact of $40 billion/year1
• Several studies show that a substantial percentage of both out patient (>70%) 2 and in-patient antibiotic use (up to 50%) is either unnecessary or inappropriate.
• In 2008, there were 142,000 visits to emergency departments for adverse events attributed to antibiotics.3

Influenza Epidemics• Member of the Orthomyxovirus, Influenza type A and B
cause seasonal epidemics in humans.
• Transmission via large-particle droplets.
• Incubation 1-4 days.
Every year in the United States, on average:
• 5% to 20% of the population gets the flu
• more than 200,000 people are hospitalized from flu-related complications
• about 36,000 people die from flu-related causes
• Shedding: Adults 5-10 days, Children >10 days, immunocompromised weeks or months.

Influenza in Children• Children aged 0–4 years
– 100/100,000 children for those without high-risk medical conditions.
– 500/100,000 children for those with high-risk medical conditions
– Highest among children aged 0–1 years and are comparable to rates reported among persons aged > 65 years.
• Signs: Abrupt onset of constitutional and respiratory signs (fever, myalgia, headache, sore throat, cough). Children- otitis media, nausea and vomiting.
• Hospitalization: 4%-11% ICU, 3% mechanical ventilation.
• Complications: Otitis media, Bacterial Pneumonia, Encephalitis, encephalopathy, Myocarditis, Myositis
• PPV for clinical definition in children 79% to 88%.

Influenza Culture
• Tube culture- PMK, MDCK (trypsin in medium), ML
• Co-cultured cells: R-Mix (DHI)- A549+ML, R-Mix Too- A549+MDCK. Rapid results >80% of flu specimens are positive on Day 1.
• R-Mix Too- may be better in FluB recovery and it does not support SARS-CoV.
• Dunn et al JCM 2004. Total 3803 respiratory specimens; compared tube culture to R-Mix SV. Flu A 238/241 (99%), Flu B 36/38 (95%) and RSV 52/60 (87%).
• Cryopreserved R-Mix Ready cells: Kim et al JCV 2008. Higher and early recovery of viruses in R- Mix ready cells Vs tube culture.
• Option for small volume laboratories and surplus inventory during peak winter season.

Influenza DFA
• DFA for influenza is a highly sensitive and specific test.
• Technical expertise needed, TAT few hours• Sensitivity is affected by sample quality- flocked
swabs provide good cell recovery for DFA. • Screening antibodies for 7 viruses are available
from several vendors. Identification is by mAb.• Cytospin improves DFA performance on slide
preparations.• Combination antibodies FluA/respiratory virus
help for quick screening during peak influenza season. D3 Duet (DHI) SimulFluor (Millipore).

Influenza Rapid Antigen Test
• Rapid antigen test for influenza have moderate sensitivity for seasonal Flu A/B (50-80%) and poor sensitivity (10% to 40%) for 2009 H1N1 virus.
• Specificity usually >90%.• Influenza antigen negative results need
confirmatory test performed; Culture, DFA, RT-PCR.
• Benefit of Influenza rapid antigen test in the OP setting – patient triage, infection control, reduced
antibiotic usage, timely antiviral treatment, reduce unnecessary diagnostic workups, overall reduction in medical care cost.

Rapid Antigen Test-Flu A/B
• Host Factors:
– Age
– Duration of illness
– Specimen type
– Specimen transport
© The Children's Mercy Hospital, 2014. 03/1412
Host factors
• Age: Children excrete high viral loads during influenza infections
• Duration of illness: Viral load in respiratory secretions decrease with duration of illness. Testing within 3 days of illness onset improves detection
• Specimen Type: Nasopharyngeal aspirates, nasopharyngeal washes, nasopharyngeal swabs, mid turbinate swabs are preferred specimens. Nasal and throat swabs results in sub-optimal yield
• Specimen Transport: Collection in viral transport medium and rapid transport on ice improves yield
Cheng et al., 2009; Esposito et al., 2011; Loeb et al., 2012; Talbot et al., 2010
© The Children's Mercy Hospital, 2014. 03/1413
Specimen collection
• Nasopharyngeal aspirates and nasal washes: High viral load, diluted, mucous can interfere with EIA/DFA performance. Cell quantity may vary between collection. Suitable for culture, PCR and later flow tests.
• Recent experience indicates that a combination of NP swab and throat swab in VTM may improve diagnostic yield.
• Flocked swabs: More cells collected, less mucous, well suited for DFA. Nasopharyngeal and mid-turbinate swabs available.

Swab studies
• Abu-Diab et al JCM 2007; NPA Vs NP swab. 455 children. Sensitivity of NP swab 98.5%.
• Allen et al PASCV 2008 poster # M28; MTS Vs NP swab. 203 children, PCR gold standard. NPS =87.5%, MTS =79%. 8% of both NPS and MTS insufficient for DFA. Nurse prefer MTS.
• Selvarangan et al PASCV 2009 poster # M51. 200 children. NPA Vs MTS. RSV antigen and SV culture. RSV antigen sensitivity 66% for MTS and 70% for NPA. Nurses prefer MTS over NPA.

Rapid Antigen Test-Flu A/B
• Viral Factors:
– Influenza activity
– Viral subtype
© The Children's Mercy Hospital, 2014. 03/1417
Test PerformanceSensitivity : proportion of actual positives which are correctly
identified as such (i.e. the percentage of sick people who are identified as having the condition)
Specificity : proportion of negatives which are correctly identified (i.e. the percentage of well people who are identified as not having the condition).
The probability of the presence or absence of disease given the results of a test.
Positive predictive value (PPV) : proportion of patients with positive test results who are correctly diagnosed.
Negative predictive value (NPV): proportion of patients with negative test results who are correctly diagnosed.

FDA Ruling May 2014-RIDTLaboratory Tests:
Influenza viral antigens or influenza viral gene segments (protein or nucleic acid), either in single unit test formats or multi-test formats
Monitoring Performance:
Conduct annual analytical testing of their device with contemporary strains
Standardized panel of viruses selected in coordination with FDA. Dilutions at 10e2 and 10e5 TCID50/mL in triplicate.
Detection of all replicates at least at one dilution. Standardized panels of well characterized viral stocks could possibly be available from CDC or commercial vendors.
The testing could be conducted in-house or at a contract laboratory. Absence of analytical reactivity would be reflected in labeling as a limitation.
Emerging Influenza strains: Provide analytical reactivity report to FDA within 60 days of emerged virus strain availability.

Diagnostic Challenges• Problem1: Lack of a rapid and highly sensitive
method for detection of Influenza at POC setting.
• Problem 2: Lack of sensitive method for extensive detection of respiratory viruses in hospitalized patients
– Impact: Improper use of antivirals, overuse of antibiotics, additional diagnostic workup, improper infection control measures, over all increase in health care cost.

Influenza Diagnostics- Summary• Rapid antigen tests are useful for OP management.
• Antigenic drift and shift in Influenza strains influences test performance.
• Specimen collection method and VTM approved for the antigen test need to be followed
• Monitor QC controls and review data periodically
• Reflex antigen negative test result to confirmatory testing
• Rapid molecular tests for Influenza will improve diagnostic yield
• SV culture is a simple assay with Flu isolation mostly by day 1
• Multiplex PCR assays improve Flu detection and other respiratory infections associated with ILI
• Epidemiological data or individual Flu subtype testing may be necessary to determine antiviral resistance.
