“all stools submitted for routine testing from patients be simultaneously cultured for O157 and tested with an assay that detects Shiga toxins to detect non-O157 STEC”

“Specimens or enrichment broths in which Shiga toxin or STEC are detected but from which O157 STEC are not recovered should be forwarded as soon as possible to a state or local public health laboratory”.

Issues

PCR Direct from stool PCR pos culture negative issue Direct detection of vt1 or vt2 gene(s) (without

strain isolation), probable or confirmed depending on clinical criteria (HPSC)

HSE-PHL-Dublin

Ref lab Direct PCR, Enrichment/IMS PCR, colony

confirmation.1. Direct PCR pos and/or Enrichment/IMS PCR

pos + colony confirmed

2. Direct PCR pos + Enrichment/IMS PCR pos but can’t isolate colony

3. Direct PCR pos + Enrichment/IMS PCR neg

Do 2 +3 have the same PH implications?

Issues

HSE-PHL-Dublin

2) Direct PCR pos + Enrichment/IMS PCR pos but can’t isolate colony

Organism seems to be growing viable Shedding of viable organism possible PH

risk Source of infection

HSE-PHL-Dublin

3) Direct PCR pos + Enrichment/IMS PCR neg Organism not growing not viable Shedding of non viable organism not a PH

risk May have been infection with organism

subsequently dying source of infection May have been no infection but ingestion of

non viable organism e.g. from treated water or processed food

Summary

VTEC in recent years Particularly in non-O157 VTEC Introduction of mandatory notification Increased awareness non-O157 VTEC Recent increases of non-O157 VTEC can be

attributed to more targeted methods Challenges Clinical and lab findings need to be taken

together Lab + PH need to communicate
