Kit Performance

It is up to all users to form their own opinion or conclusions on each kit's performance based on the accumulation of data and information that is supplied by this survey, and other information available to the participant. A variety of samples are used in this Program (undiluted, diluted and pooled serum and plasma) and this can sometimes impact on results and performance of some kits. With serum specimens, occasional artefactual problems are encountered with some kits due to changes in the matrix caused by rethrombinisation of plasma or dilution.

Clinical Notes

The “Clinical Notes” were created so as to highlight particular issues relating to interpretation of serological results. They do not necessarily reflect the clinical history of the patient from whom the sample was obtained. 4G A 20 year old male presents with malaise, sore throat, rash and fever over the past two weeks. Recent

streptococcal infection is suspected.

4H A 25 year old male presents to his doctor with migratory polyarthritis. He has had a recent sore throat and a

sample is submitted for investigation.

Request

Please test sera for antibodies to streptococcal exotoxins. Elevated titres should be extended to the end-point. Please test in the same manner as patient specimens.

Specimen Details

Specimens are of human origin and tested negative for hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis C antibody and HIV. (Ref. 2014 RCPAQAP Serology Program Plan section B4:2014) 4G is a serum sample that tested positive for ASOT and negative to Anti-DNase B.

Source: SEALS, Prince of Wales Hospital, NSW. 4H is a pooled serum sample that tested positive for ASOT and negative to Anti-DNase B.

Source: Laverty Pathology, North Ryde, NSW.

Pre-issue testing: Princess Alexandra Hospital, Pathology Queensland, QLD.

Analysis of Results

For information on “Analysis of Results” please refer to your RCPAQAP Serology Participation Handbook for the current year. The Participant Performance Table is an indicator for participants to review their results and evaluate their own performance as ‘Satisfactory’ or ‘Unsatisfactory’.

Robust Statistics

Analysis of Results using Robust Statistics is performed on user groups of five (5) or more participants using the same units and is now available on your personalised Assessment Report. In order to calculate the statistics as accurately as possible, results that are presented as < or > are entered into the calculations as the next whole number. For example, <10 is entered into the calculation as 9 and >500 is entered as 501. To view robust statistics of user groups other than your own, use the RCPAQAP Serology website http://www.rcpaqap.com.au/serology Log into the ‘Member Services’ section and go to ‘Dynamic Graphs of Results’.

Interpretative Comments

Combination responses have been split into their appropriate option – for example, if a participant chose 3 & 5, they are counted once in each of those options. % is based on the total number of participants and not the total number of comments. Therefore, the total % adds to more than 100%. Extra Comments

41302 4G/H: peak levels are achieved 3-6 weeks after onset, following uncomplicated infection

Comments provided by: Robert Gibb, Microbiology, Pathology Queensland, QLD, Australia, on behalf of the RCPAQAP Serology

SPECIMEN 4G

ASOT (60 Participants)

Most participants (38, 63%) reported a non-significant ASOT result whilst 22 participants (37%) reported the results as significant. There was no consensus for the ASOT with this specimen. All Beckman Coulter Immage participants reported the result as not significant with a small spread of values. One result of <50 IU/mL was discarded to give a mean of 154 IU/mL and a CV of 14%. Most of the Roche Diagnostics Integra/Cobas and Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics BNII participants reported a significant result. The mean of each assay was 248 IU/mL (CV 16%) and 223 IU/mL (CV 4.6%) respectively, which was significantly higher than mean of the Beckman Coulter Immage participants (154 IU/mL). All ten bioMerieux ASL assay participants reported the result as not significant, with values of 100 and 200 IU/mL. All the Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics RapiTex ASL results were either <200 or 200, with 63% of participants reporting the specimen as not significant.

Anti-DNase B (35 Participants)

34 of the 35 participants (97%) returned results interpreted as not significant. All participants (except one) reported results of less than 100 IU/mL. There was excellent consistency for this specimen amongst all participants and manufacturers. Streptozyme (2 Participants) Both participants using Streptozyme assay reported the result as Significant.

Discussion There was good consensus amongst most participants, particularly for the anti-DNase B assay. Comment 2 “Result is not consistent with recent streptococcal infection” was chosen by 56% of participants and 36% chose Comment 3 “Serum taken early in course of illness, suggest repeat testing in 1 week”. The patient presented with acute symptoms of sore throat and fever. As this is early in the acute phase of the illness, this could be indicative of a recent streptococcal infection without detectable streptococcal antibodies and a follow-up specimen should be collected.

SPECIMEN 4H

ASOT (60 Participants)

Most participants (50, 83%) reported a significant ASOT result whilst nine participants (15%) reported results as not significant. Beckman Coulter Immage participants showed a range of values from 146 to 238 IU/mL. With the low outlier (146 IU/mL) removed, the mean was 224 IU/mL and the CV 6.4%. Two participants reporting the higher values interpreted this as not significant, whilst three participants with lower values reported the results as significant. The difference was based on the cut-off applied by the laboratory. All of the Roche Diagnostics Integra/Modular and Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics BNII participants reported a significant result. The mean of the assays were 365 IU/mL (CV 3.5%) and 352 IU/mL (CV 5.4%) respectively, which was significantly higher than mean of the Beckman Coulter Immage participants (224 IU/mL). Six participants of the bioMerieux ASL assay (60%) reported values of 100 IU/mL as not significant, whilst four participants reported a value of 200 IU/mL as significant. All participants using the Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics RapiTex ASL gave results between 200 and 400 IU/mL with only one participant reporting the specimen as not significant.

Anti-DNase B (35 Participants)

There was no consensus for the anti-DNase B assay for this specimen with 19/35 participants (54%) reporting their result as not significant and 13 participants (37%) reporting the result as significant. Beckman Coulter Immage participants showed a range of values from 153 to 199 IU/mL with a mean of 167 IU/mL and a CV of 11%. Excluding one low result, the six Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics BNII participants reported a mean of 201 IU/mL (CV 18%). The Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics results were opposite to the Beckman Coulter Immage where all participants except one reported the result as not significant. Participants of the bioMerieux ASD assay reported values from 100 to 200 IU/mL, with the cut-off ranging from 50 to 680, giving a range of interpretations. Streptozyme (2 Participants) Both participants using Streptozyme assay reported the result as Significant. Discussion This specimen contained moderately elevated levels of ASOT and slightly raised levels of anti-DNase B. There were 67% of participants that correctly used Comment 1 “Result is elevated and consistent with current or recent streptococcal infection” and 43% suggested repeat testing in 1 week. The initial site of infection is known to influence the antibody response. The ASOT is usually elevated following throat infection and skin infection usually causes a raised anti-DNase B level. The sensitivity of the ASOT in rheumatic fever and post streptococcal glomerulonephritis is around 85%. In this case, polyarthritis following a throat infection with slightly elevated ASOT results may be consistent with a recent streptococcal infection. Repeat testing should be performed in one week to determine rising titres.

CONCLUSIONS

As many participants determine their own reference range based on local population, detailed analysis of absolute values is difficult. This is particularly evident in the ASOT levels of Specimen 4G and the anti-DNase B results of Specimen 4H where consensus could not be reached.
