multipex for viral and atypical pneumonia
DESCRIPTION
Diagnosis of pneumonia can be challeging, especially if pathogens other than Streptococcus pneumoniae are involved Multiplex PCR with results available within the same day can investigate the presence or absence of 16 viruses and 5 bacteria, enablng the physician to make informed decisions about treatment, prognosis and public health and infection control measures.TRANSCRIPT

Atypical pneumonia• Clinical manifestations are
– fever, dyspnea & cough– unilateral patchy segmental infiltrations
• No pathogenic organism isolated• But knowing etiological agent determines
– Potential prognosis– Optimal treatment– Public health precautions
![Page 12: Multipex for viral and atypical pneumonia](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103000/554b0f7db4c9055d098b484c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Mycoplasma pneumoniae(Eaton agent)
• A common cause of CAP• A disease of gradual & incidious onset• Characterized by prolonged paroxysmal cough
and prolonged resolution of symptoms in an otherwise healthy patient, usually below 40 yrs, most common between 5 and 20 yrs
• Large outbreaks in late summer & fall• Incubation period : 3 weeks (smoldering)• Only 5 to 10% of infected develop pneumonia
![Page 13: Multipex for viral and atypical pneumonia](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103000/554b0f7db4c9055d098b484c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Mycoplasma pneumoniae
• c/f include fever, malaise, persistent slowly worsening cough, headache, chills, sore throat, pleuratic chest pain
• Mycoplasma pneumoniae is also implicated in– Acute hepatitis– Immune thrombocytopenic purpura– Severe autoimmune hemolytic anaemia– Stevens Johnson syndrome– Arthritis– Transverse myelitis
![Page 14: Multipex for viral and atypical pneumonia](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103000/554b0f7db4c9055d098b484c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Chlamydia pneumoniae• Mild pneumonia & bronchitis in young adults• In USA 300,000 cases are diagnosed annually• 10% of all CAP cases amongst adults• More common in males (cigarette smoking)• Primary infection: 7 to 40 yrs• Reinfection pneumonia: in elderly• Incubation period is 3 to 4 wks• Bronchitis, persistent cough, maliase over weeks, fever not a
prominent feature• WBC not elevated, Alkaline phosphatase maybe

Legionella pneumophila
• False but enduring status as an exotic infection• Failure to diagnose is due to lack of clinical
awareness and absence of lab facilities• In USA 8000 to 1800 pts are admitted annually• Named in 1979after an epidemic at a Legionnaires
annual meet in Philadelphia in 1976• Two types of infections:
– Severe multisystem diseases including pneumonia– A self limiting flu like illness: Pontaic fever
![Page 16: Multipex for viral and atypical pneumonia](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103000/554b0f7db4c9055d098b484c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Legionella pneumophila
• c/f: nothing pathgnomic• Fever, non productive cough, headache, myalgia,
rigor, dyspnoea, diarrhoea & delirium• X-ray: alveolar infiltration• Fram negative bacilli, grows between 25 & 42 C
with optimum temp as 35 C• Inside free living protozoa in acquatic
environment, mostly in slime• Sensitive to macrolites

Pertusis in TunisiaAsma Zourani et al Diag Micro & ID 2012; 72 (4): 303 - 317
• Between 2007 & 2011• 626 samples from 599 infants < 1 yr• 126 (21%) positive by PCR, 1 by culture• B. pertusis 82%• B. parapertusis 6% ; both in 8%• Reported throughout the year• With a peak in summer• Mothers seemed to be likely source of infection
![Page 18: Multipex for viral and atypical pneumonia](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103000/554b0f7db4c9055d098b484c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Viral pneumonia
• Largest proportion of childhood pneumonia• Decreases in frequency in healthy young &
middle aged adults• Increases in frequency amongst the elderly• Second commonest cause of pneumonia (after
Strep pneumoniae) 13 to 50%
![Page 19: Multipex for viral and atypical pneumonia](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103000/554b0f7db4c9055d098b484c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Viral pneumoniaimmuno competent child
• Influenza A & B• Respiratory syncytial virus• Adenovirus (especially in military recruits)• Parainfluenza virus• Other viruses implicated as when molecular
diagnostic facilities improve & are used

Pathophysiology of viral pneumonia
Some virus are • cytopathic & directly affect pneumocytes or bronchial cellsOthers, either cause inflammation due to over excuberant
immune response– Type 1 cytokines (CMI)– Type 2 cytokines (allergic response)
Children infected with RSV who develop acute bronchiolitis rather than URTI have impaired type 1 immunity or agumented type 2 immunity

Sample collection & Transportation
• All sample must be collected using eNAT Swabs (COPAN)• Three different swabs are available
– eNAT Regular applicator (606CS01 R)– eNAT L Shaped Applicator (606CS01 L)– eNAT Pernasal applicator (606CS01 P)
• eNAT medium stabilizes & preserves RNA/DNA for prolonged time periods
• eNAT medium contains detergent & protein denaturant, so not suitable for culture based tests
• Transport at 5 to 25 C (in cold)
