The FecalSwab® displays high performances for stool culture, but it was not assessed for carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) screening. We assess the performances of the Xpert Carba-R v2® with the FecalSwab®. Using a collection of 12 CPE strains, the limit of detection was assessed at 158 CFU/swab [interquartile range 93-589]. In 2019, 1540 swabs were included by 4 hospital laboratories, of which 39 (2.5%) yield an invalid result. Among the 1501 valid, 87 (5.8%) were positives by culture and PCR and 25 (1.7%) were discrepant
