Resistance to carbapenems due carbapenemases has been increasingly noticed in Enterobacteriaceae. Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) recommended the latest Carba NP (CNP) test as a confirmatory for carbapenemase production Low sensitivity of disk diffusion (DD) modified Hodge (MHT) may result missing out resistant strains which can adversely affect clinical management. The present study compares three phenotypic tests - CNP test, DD, MHT detection production.Four hundred...

Dengue virus infection is endemic in India with all the four serotypes of dengue circulation. This study was aimed to determine geographic distribution primary and secondary cases India.A multicentre cross-sectional conducted at Department Health Research / Indian Council Medical (DHR)/(ICMR) viral research diagnostic laboratories (VRDLs) selected ICMR institutes located India. Only laboratory-confirmed date onset illness less than or equal seven days were included between September October...
Background and Aims: The laryngoscope is a potential source of cross-infection as it involves contact with the mucous membrane, saliva occasionally blood. This study compared efficacy cost-effectiveness two Centre for Disease Control approved agents disinfection blades. Methods: One hundred sixty patients requiring laryngoscopy intubation general anaesthesia were randomly allocated into groups. After tracheal intubation, used blades cleaned tap water. then immersed in either 2% w/v...
Background: India is rich in tribal population including north-east India. This research of ours based on viral hepatitis diagnosis (HBV, HCV, HDV. HAV. HEV) and prevalence the eight north eastern states (namely Assam, Arunachal, Nagaland, Sikkim, Tripura, Meghalaya, Manipur, Mizoram) that are locations bordering other countries like Bangladesh, Bhutan Nepal. The article intercompares pattern non-tribal patients as well overall pre-COVID-19 during COVID-19. Methodology: cross-sectional study...
Regional Virus Research and Diagnostic Laboratory established at ICMR-National Institute of Cholera Enteric Diseases (NICED) regularly receives samples for dengue screening serotyping from patients acute febrile illness (AFI) Kolkata adjacent districts. In this study, data over a three year period (August 2016-July 2019) was retrospectively analyzed to provide insight into the epidemiological trends fever in region.Serological performed by detection NS1 antigen and/or immunoglobulin M (IgM)...
