Abstract
Detection of carbapenem resistance genes is a critical issue for hospitals due to possible recommendations for infection control and targeted therapy. The Cepheid Xpert instrument, a Carba-R test for the detection and differentiation of five common carbapenemase genes, was tested from September 2020 to February 2021. As part of the approbation, 20 tests were provided. This review presents the results of the approbation of a relatively regular sensitivity study on Siemens WalkAway‑96 plus. Cepheid Xpert Carba-R analysis has been shown to be an accurate and fast tool for detecting colonization by carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria, which can help limit the spread of these organisms in hospitals.
