Résumé
Recently, molecular assays have been demonstrated to be reliable for rapid detection of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) directly from positive blood cultures, reducing significantly the time for identification. Few studies have tested their performance on rectal swabs and no comprehensive conclusions have been reached regarding their utility for infection control management. Our aim was to review and assess the overall diagnostic test accuracy of polymerase chain reaction for the detection of CPE in rectal swabs. The electronic database PubMed was searched, up to October 1
