DOI: 10.1007/s15010-019-01277-7

Abstract: PurposeThis retrospective cohort study derived a “quick” version of the Pitt bacteremia score (qPitt) using binary variables in patients with Gram-negative bloodstream infections (BSI). The qPitt discrimination was then compared to quick sepsis-related organ failure… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jgar.2018.02.003

Abstract: OBJECTIVES Carbapenem minimum inhibitory concentration (MICs) are known to predict outcomes for patients with Gram-negative bacteraemia. However, limited data exist on how MICs influence such outcomes when organisms are classified as carbapenem-resistant. The purpose of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ofid/ofac173

Abstract: Abstract The role of follow-up blood cultures (FUBCs) in gram-negative bloodstream infections to improve clinical outcomes remains controversial, especially among immunocompromised patients. Among 139 patients, FUBCs were common (117, 84.2%); however, positive FUBCs were rare… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2020/4873074

Abstract: Objective Gram-negative bloodstream infections (GNBSIs), especially those caused by antibiotic-resistant species, have become a public health challenge. Procalcitonin (PCT) showed promising potential in early diagnosis of GNBSI; however, little was known about its performance under… read more here.
