Abstract

Background: Accuracy and quick identification of bacterial pathogens causing gastrointestinal and urinary tract diseases are essential factors in determining the infectious etiology for Pediatric disease. Objective: Study to compare the correlation of identification results between the MicroScan WalkAway automatic identification machine and the API rapid kit (bioMérieux) on pediatric patients with gastrointestinal and urinary tract infections. Methods: Cross-sectional description - From 04/2022 - 08/2022 at Department of Microbiology - City Children's Hospital. Results: The study collected 56 strains, of which 12 strains of Gram-negative bacilli were isolated from urine samples, 46 Gram-negative strains were isolated from stool samples and 5 strains ATCC . Of these 91.8% were correctly identified at the cultivar and species level using both systems. Identical concordance in 12 urine samples was 83.3%, stool samples was 93.3%. Average time to get test results is 12.5 hours for MicroScan and 24 hours for Api kit. Conclusion: A method to replace the MicroScan WalkAway automatic analyzer microbial identification technique with an API rapid (bioMérieux) for all types of specimens if the system has problems or problems during operation.
