lüll Update on detection of bacteremia and fungemia Reimer LG; Wilson ML; Weinstein MPClin Microbiol Rev 1997[Jul]; 10 (3): 444-65The presence of microorganisms in a patient's blood is a critical determinant of the severity of the patient's illness. Equally important, the laboratory isolation and identification of a microorganism present in blood determine the etiologic agent of infection, especially when the site of infection is localized and difficult to access. This review addresses the pathophysiology and clinical characteristics of bacteremia, fungemia, and sepsis; diagnostic strategies and critical factors in the detection of positive blood cultures; characteristics of manual and instrument approaches to bacteremia detection; approaches for isolating specific microorganisms associated with positive blood cultures; and rapid methods for the identification of microorganisms in blood cultures.|*Bacteriological Techniques[MESH]|Bacteremia/blood/*diagnosis/immunology/microbiology/physiopathology[MESH]|Brucella/growth & development/pathogenicity[MESH]|Campylobacter/growth & development/pathogenicity[MESH]|Fungemia/blood/*diagnosis/immunology/microbiology/physiopathology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Legionella[MESH]|Mycology/*methods[MESH]|Mycoplasma/growth & development/pathogenicity[MESH]|Prognosis[MESH] |
