- W1623286346 abstract "Clostridium difficile is the cause of most cases of pseudomembranous colitis, the most severe form of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Rapid diagnosis guides both the treatment and the control of nosocomial spread of infection. Two enzyme immunoassay (EIA) kits developed for the rapid detection of C. difficile toxin A in fecal specimens, Premier (Meridian Diagnostics, Cincinnati, Ohio) and Tox-A test (TechLab, Virginia Polytechnic Institute Research Park, Blacksburg), were evaluated by using 410 fecal specimens. Seventy-six specimens were positive for C. difficile toxin B by the cytotoxin assay (prevalence rate, 19%). The Meridian EIA was positive for 71 of the 76 samples, yielding a sensitivity of 93%. The TechLab EIA detected 75 of the 76 positive samples, yielding a sensitivity of 99%. The Meridian and TechLab EIAs had specificities of 100 and 93%, respectively. These data indicate that both EIAs are suitable alternatives to the cytotoxin assay in routine diagnostic laboratories. However, confirmation of TechLab EIA-positive test results by the cytotoxin assay remains necessary." @default.
