Staphylokinase and ABO Group Phenotype: New Players in Staphylococcus Aureus Implant-associated Infections Development

Completed
Conditions
Staphylococcal Infection
Interventions
Other: Staphylococcus aureus nasal carriage infection
Other: IAI infection
Registration Number
NCT02812446
Lead Sponsor
Nantes University Hospital
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify bacterial and/or clinical features involved in the pathogenesis of Staphylococcus aureus implant-associated infections (IAI). Materials \& methods: In total, 57 IAI S. aureus and 31 nasal carriage (NC) S. aureus isolates were studied. Staphylococcus aureus genetic background was obtained by microarray analysis. Multilocus sequence typing was performed to determine clonal complexes (CC). Biofilm production was investigated by resazurin and crystal violet methods

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
IAI and NC nasal carriage isolates genetic backgroundseptember 2012

IAI and NC isolates genetic background was determined in order to compare the prevalence of individual virulence factor genes. All genes provided by the Alere StaphyType DNA microarray were studied

biofilm production measurement in the two groupsseptember 2012

The primary aim of this study is to identify phenotypic (biofilm production) markers in two different groups of S. aureus strains isolated from patients with IAI or screened from nasal carrier in noninfected patients undergoing orthopedic surgery.

By using resazurin method, IAI and NC nasal carriage isolates were divided into three groups. Isolates were classified as strong, moderate and weak biofilm producers.

Clonal complexes distributionseptember 2012

The primary aim of this study is to identify genotypic markers in two different groups of S. aureus strains isolated from patients with IAI or screened from nasal carrier in noninfected patients undergoing orthopedic surgery.

IAI and NC isolates genetic background was determined in order to compare the prevalence of individual virulence factor genes. All genes provided by the Alere StaphyType DNA microarray were studied.

Correlation between Clonal Complexes distribution , genotype and clinical parametersdecember 2013

In order to determine whether clusters of S. aureus could be associated with clinical characteristics of the patients, search of association between CCs and clinical data was performed
