信頼性の高い検査結果報告システム
我々は感染症検査システムにおいて、検体の受付基準の設定、検査方法や再検基準の統一化、薬剤感受性検査報告のカスケード報告や選択的報告の導入、報告コメントのフォーマット化に取り組んだ。その結果、正確で信頼性の高い検査データを報告するシステムが構築できた。本システムは感染症検査の標準化だけでなく、技師教育にも利用できる。今後は更なる精度の向上と新しい検査への対応を追加していく必要がある。

The 21st century is said to be an era of infectious diseases. There have been many reports on re-emerging and newly emerging infectious diseases. In addition, antimicrobial resistant bacteria that are not susceptible to antibacterial agents are increasing. Meanwhile, the development of new antimicrobial agents has decreased, and appropriate use of antimicrobial agents is required for the treatment of infectious diseases. The logistics and the traffic of people have become convenient, making the world closer; however, the risks of infectious diseases around us have increased accordingly.
Reliable test system for infectious diseases
Microbial testing is essential for the diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases. Microbial testing provides the identification of causative microbe for the disease and the results of drug-sensitivity test that is effective for appropriate use of antimicrobial agents. In the infectious disease test system, we worked on establishing the acceptance criteria for samples, unification of test methods and the criteria for retesting, cascading and selective reporting of antimicrobial susceptibility reports, and formatting of report comments. As a result, we have developed a system that reports accurate and reliable test data. This system can be used not only for the standardization of infectious disease tests but also for the education of technicians. In the future, further improvement of the accuracy of tests and the adaptation to new tests should be added to the system.
Detection of antimicrobial resistant bacteria
Infection with antimicrobial resistant bacteria not only limits the treatments applicable but also prolongs patients’ hospitalization. In addition, the facilities where antimicrobial resistant bacteria are detected have to take measures to prevent nosocomial infections and examine the possible occurrence of outbreaks. The laboratory conducts screening and definitive tests of antimicrobial resistant bacteria by combining several types of tests such as antimicrobial susceptibility tests and genetic tests. It is desirable to develop a simple, fast, and inexpensive method for testing antimicrobial resistant bacteria.
A survey of antimicrobial resistant bacteria in Kyoto and Shiga
Antimicrobial resistant bacteria are problematic with respect to hospital infection and the spread in communities in addition to be troubling for infected patients. We have been active in the Kyoto-Shiga Clinical Microbiology Study Group since 2001. Around a dozen of facilities in Kyoto and Shiga prefectures have developed unified standards in their joint effort, and are investigating the situation of detecting antimicrobial resistant bacteria. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and metallo β-lactamase-producing bacteria have decreased over time, while extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing bacteria have increased. In particular facilities, antimicrobial resistant bacteria with the same genotype were identified, which is suggestive of nosocomial infections. In the future, we should consider the proper use of antibacterial agents in accordance with the concept of “one health”, a concept proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO), in which we consider human, animal and environment in an integrated manner.
