Niken Ayu Paramitha, Yunia Sribudiani, Ahmad Rizal

Abstract


Salah satu permasalahan dalam diagnosis meningitis tuberkulosis (TB) adalah rendahnya positivitas metode yang digunakan. Berbagai metode telah dikembangkan, mulai dari metode kultur MODS (microscopic observation drug susceptibility), pewarnaan Ziehl-Neelsen (ZN), hingga GeneXpert. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menentukan metode diagnostik terbaik mendeteksi M. tuberculosis berdasar atas nilai positivitasnya. Penelitian ini merupakan observasional analitik dengan rancangan potong lintang. Data berasal dari penelitian kohort dan ReDEFINe meningitis TB di Rumah Sakit Umum Pusat Dr. Hasan Sadikin Bandung. Data diambil dari case report form pasien dengan diagnosis meningitis TB pada periode Juli 2014–Juni 2016. Kriteria inklusi penelitian ini adalah usia ≥18 tahun dan memiliki hasil pemeriksaan MODS, pewarnaan ZN, dan GeneXpert. Analisis data menggunakan Uji Cochran’s Q dan uji lanjut dengan Uji McNemar. Sebanyak 135 subjek penelitian memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan didapatkan positivitas deteksi M. tuberculosis menggunakan MODS, pewarnaan ZN, dan GeneXpert berturut-turut adalah 46,7%; 20,0%; dan 37,8%. Nilai positivitas antara ketiga metode tersebut secara statistik berbeda bermakna dengan nilai p<0,05. Sensitivitas dan spesifisitas GeneXpert dibanding dengan MODS berturut-turut mencapai 68,3% dan 88,9%, sedangkan sensitivitas pewarnaan ZN sebesar 34,9% dan spesifisitas 93.1%. Berdasar atas nilai positivitas dan sensitivitas, hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa metode MODS masih merupakan metode diagnostik terbaik untuk meningitis TB.

 Comparison of Positivity Rate of MODS, Ziehl-Neelsen Staining, and GeneXpert Methods in M. tuberculosis Detection among Tuberculous Meningitis Patients

One of the problems in the diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is the low positivity rate of the diagnostic methods. Various methods have been developed, starting from culture MODS (microscopic observation drug susceptibility) to Ziehl-Neelsen (ZN) staining and to GeneXpert. This study was conducted to determine the best diagnostic method to detect M. tuberculosis based on its positivity rate. This cross-sectional analytic observational study was conducted on TBM cohort of the ReDEFINe study in Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital. Data were collected from the case reports of TBM inpatients during the period of  July 2014–June 2016. Patients ≥18 years who had complete result from MODS, ZN staining, and GeneXpert were included. Data were analyzed using Cochran’s Q test and post-hoc analysis using McNemar test. In total, 135 subjects were included in this study. The positivity rates of M. tuberculosis  detection using MODS, ZN staining, and GeneXpert were 46.7%, 20.0%, and 37.8%, respectively. The positivity rate differences among the three diagnostic methods were statistically significant with a p-value of <0.05. The sensitivity and specificity of GeneXpert compared to those of MODS were 68.3% and 88.9%,respectively. Meanwhile the sensitivity and specificity of ZN staining were 34.9% and 93.1%, respectively. Based on the positivity rate and sensitivity, the results of this study indicates that the MODS method is still the best diagnostic method for TB meningitis.
