Healthcare worker mental models of patient care tasks in the context of infection prevention and control

Joel M. Mumma, Jessica R. Howard-Anderson, Jill S. Morgan, Kevin Schink, Marisa J. Wheatley, Colleen S. Kraft, Morgan A. Lane, Noah H. Kaufman, Oluwateniola Ayeni, Erik A. Brownsword, Jesse T. Jacob

Summary: Different populations of healthcare workers have similar mental models of how various patient care tasks relate to infection prevention and control, with perceived infection risk, dirtiness and exposure risk, as well as the importance of preventing versus controlling infection as common dimensions.

Reductions in positive Clostridioides difficile events reportable to National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) with adoption of reflex enzyme immunoassay (EIA) testing in 13 Atlanta hospitals

Dana Goodenough, Samantha Sefton, Elizabeth Overton, Elizabeth Smith, Colleen S. Kraft, Jay B. Varkey, Scott K. Fridkin

Summary: Changing the testing method to reflexive testing by enzyme immunoassay (EIA) only after a positive nucleic acid-amplification test (NAAT) significantly reduced the occurrence of C. difficile infection without altering infection prevention practices.

Fecal Microbiota Transplantation Donor Screening Updates and Research Gaps for Solid Organ Transplant Recipients

Nirja Mehta, Tiffany Wang, Rachel J. Friedman-Moraco, Cynthia Carpentieri, Aneesh K. Mehta, Nadine Rouphael, Tanvi Dhere, Christian P. Larsen, Colleen S. Kraft, Michael H. Woodworth

Summary: This review discusses the potential risks of pathogen transmission through fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients and reviews the reported adverse effects of FMT and current screening recommendations. There is a need for further study to develop guidelines for screening opportunistic infections transmitted through FMT.

Cytopathology of Vitreous Specimens in Acute Retinal Necrosis

Sara Hojjatie, Jessica G. Shantha, Ghazala D. O'Keefe, Colleen S. Kraft, Alfredo Voloschin, Hans Grossniklaus, Steven Yeh

Summary: This study reports the cytopathology of vitreous biopsy samples in patients with acute retinal necrosis (ARN) who underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Most patients showed a lymphocytic response, with observations of histiocytes, macrophages, and PMNs. Understanding the immune response associated with ARN may provide valuable insights for treatment dosing and timing.

Detection of Newly Secreted Antibodies Predicts Nonrecurrence in Primary Clostridioides difficile Infection

Natalie S. Haddad, Sophia Nozick, Geena Kim, Shant Ohanian, Colleen S. Kraft, Paulina A. Rebolledo, Yun Wang, Hao Wu, Adam Bressler, Sang Nguyet Thi Le, Merin Kuruvilla, Martin C. Runnstrom, Richard P. Ramonell, L. Edward Cannon, F. Eun-Hyung Lee, John L. Daiss

Summary: This study demonstrated the potential of a simple test for identifying hospitalized CDI patients at low risk for disease recurrence. By measuring newly synthesized antibodies, the study was able to identify early immune responses in patients, reducing the likelihood of recurrent CDI.

McGovern, Michele Trucksis, Matthew R. Henn, Lisa von Moltke

Summary: SER-109 microbiome therapy is superior to placebo in reducing the risk of recurrent C. difficile infection, and has a similar safety profile as placebo.

Clinical Utilization of DiaSorin Molecular Polymerase Chain Reaction in Pneumocystis Pneumonia

Gregory L. Damhorst, Kari J. Broder, Elizabeth C. Overton, Ronelio Rara, Lindsay M. Busch, Eileen M. Burd, Andrew S. Webster, Colleen S. Kraft, Ahmed Babiker

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed the application of Pneumocystis jirovecii PCR and C-T values in the diagnosis and management of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). The results showed that PCR testing had high sensitivity and specificity in detecting pathological infection, and the C-T values differed between patients with positive pathology results and those receiving treatment, with high accuracy in predicting positive pathology results.

Unrecognized introductions of SARS-CoV-2 into the US state of Georgia shaped the early epidemic

Summary: This study analyzes data from the state of Georgia in early 2020 to characterize the spread of SARS-CoV-2. The findings suggest multiple early introductions of the virus into Georgia and widespread circulation of related viruses in multiple US states by the end of March 2020. The study highlights the need for rapid and broad surveillance efforts to detect locally circulating infections during future pandemics.

Hall, Cristina Cardemil, Benjamin A. Lopman

Summary: This study assessed the association between gut microbiome diversity and norovirus infection and secretor status in patients from Veterans Affairs medical centers. The results showed lower alpha diversity metrics among patients with acute gastroenteritis, but similar results for other comparisons.

Evaluation of Performance Characteristics of the Aptima CMV Quant Assay for the Detection and Quantitation of CMV DNA in Plasma Samples

Soya S. Sam, Ralph Rogers, Jessica Ingersoll, Colleen S. Kraft, Angela M. Caliendo

Summary: This study evaluated the performance characteristics of the Aptima CMV Quant assay compared to other FDA-approved CMV assays including Abbott RealTime CMV assay, Qiagen Artus CMV RGQ MDx assay, and Roche cobas CMV test using plasma samples. The Aptima assay showed sensitivity and accuracy in quantifying CMV in plasma specimens and yielded comparable results to other FDA-approved CMV assays.
