Summary

为了保证PCD诊断的成功和高质量的睫状功能分析,一种精确而仔细的呼吸上皮取样和处理方法至关重要。为了在COVID-19大流行期间继续提供PCD诊断服务,睫状视频显微镜检查方案已更新,以包括适当的感染控制措施。

Abstract

原发性纤毛运动障碍(PCD)是一种遗传性活动性纤毛病,可导致严重的耳鼻肺疾病。由于不同诊断方式的挑战,PCD诊断经常被遗漏或延迟。睫状视频显微镜使用PCD诊断工具之一的数字高速视频显微镜(DHSV)被认为是进行睫状功能分析(CFA)的最佳方法,包括睫状搏动频率(CBF)和搏动模式(CBP)分析。然而,DHSV缺乏标准化的、公布的处理和分析样品的操作程序。它还使用活呼吸道上皮,这是 COVID-19 大流行期间的一个重要感染控制问题。为了在这场健康危机期间继续提供诊断服务,睫状视频显微镜检查方案已经过调整,以包括适当的感染控制措施。

在这里,我们描述了纤毛呼吸道样本采样和实验室处理的修订方案,重点介绍了为遵守COVID-19感染控制措施而进行的调整。描述了从16名健康受试者获得的鼻刷样品中CFA的代表性结果,根据该协议进行处理和分析。我们还说明了获得和处理最佳质量上皮纤毛条的重要性,因为不符合质量选择标准的样品现在确实允许CFA,这可能会降低该技术的诊断可靠性和效率。

Introduction

原发性纤毛运动障碍(PCD)是一种遗传性异质性活动性纤毛病,其中呼吸纤毛静止,缓慢或运动障碍,导致粘液纤毛清除受损和慢性耳窦肺疾病1234PCD的临床表现是婴儿早期开始的慢性湿咳和慢性鼻塞,复发性或慢性上呼吸道和下呼吸道感染导致支气管扩张,以及复发性或慢性中耳炎和鼻窦炎567。大约一半的PCD患者表现为器官偏侧性缺陷,例如位位逆位或位位模糊。一些患者还由于男性精子不动和女性输卵管不动纤毛而出现不孕问题128。PCD 很少见,但患病率难以定义,范围为 1:10,000 至 1:20,000910。然而,由于诊断困难和缺乏临床怀疑,PCD 的实际患病率被认为更高。PCD的症状与其他急性或慢性呼吸系统疾病的常见呼吸表现相似,确认诊断的诊断挑战是众所周知的,导致治疗和随访不足25911

使用数字高速视频显微镜(DHSV)的睫状视频显微镜是PCD481213的诊断工具之一。DHSV被认为是进行睫状功能分析(CFA)的最佳方法,包括睫状搏动频率(CBF)和搏动模式(CBP)分析2141516DHSV使用活的呼吸道上皮,通常通过鼻刷获得13

鉴于当前的COVID-19爆发,PCD诊断的确认现在变得更加重要,因为有证据表明,潜在的呼吸道疾病可能导致COVID-19感染后更糟糕的结果1718。与一般人群相比,在当前大流行期间安全有效的PCD诊断服务也将使确诊的PCD患者受益于额外的保护措施19

COVID-19的传播主要通过飞沫传播20。鼻样本20中的高病毒载量表明无症状(或症状轻微)患者的传播可能性很高。此外,如果病毒颗粒被雾化,它们会在空气中停留至少 3 小时21。因此,呼吸系统医护人员在进行临床护理和诊断技术样本采集时会暴露在高病毒载量中22。此外,操纵活体呼吸道样本会使技术人员暴露于 COVID-19 污染中。虽然正在实施针对护理COVID-19患者的呼吸内科医生和耳鼻喉外科医生的最佳实践建议23,但缺乏在COVID-19大流行期间实施DHSV的建议。

为了继续提供PCD诊断服务,同时确保医护人员(进行样本采集)和技术人员(进行样本处理)的安全,必须在COVID-19大流行期间调整睫状视频显微镜方案。睫状视频显微镜技术目前仅限于研究服务和专业诊断中心,因为CFA需要广泛的培训和经验。此外,目前,使用DHSV413处理和分析样品缺乏标准化和精确的操作程序。

本文的目的是描述DHSV的标准操作程序,特别是感染控制措施和采样和处理活鼻上皮时的安全性。尽管目前COVID-19爆发,但这将使高质量的PCD诊断和护理得以继续。

Protocol

获得了列日医院-教师伦理委员会和大学卫生与健康保护部的批准。 1.呼吸道纤毛上皮取样 在采样前,确保受试者至少 4-6 周没有感染,并且没有鼻腔和吸入药物。 制备补充的M199制剂:用抗生素溶液(5mL链霉素/青霉素(5μg/ mL))和抗真菌溶液(5mL两性霉素B(2.5μg/ mL))补充细胞培养基199(M199)(500mL)。 准备 2 个(每个鼻孔一个)带盖的 15 mL 锥形?…

Representative Results

为了说明该技术的效率,我们在一系列16名健康成年志愿者(5名男性,年龄范围22-54岁)中展示了CFA的结果。 在总共16名志愿者中,来自14名(4名男性,年龄范围24-54岁)的鼻刷样本提供了足够合适的上皮边缘,满足进行CFA所需的选择标准。从这14个鼻刷样本中,共记录了242个纤毛边缘,212个边缘符合定义的纳入标准并进行了分析。所有这些边缘都记录在侧向剖面中(记录并分…

Discussion

本文旨在为使用鼻刷样本的CFA提供标准操作程序,并在COVID-19大流行期间根据适当的感染控制考虑进行调整。PCD诊断具有挑战性,根据国际建议,目前需要一组不同的诊断测试,包括鼻一氧化氮测量,使用DHSV的CFA,使用透射电子显微镜(TEM)的睫状超微结构分析,使用免疫荧光标记睫状蛋白,以及PCD致病基因437的基因检测。目前,没有单一的测试可?…
