The Evaluation of Healthcare Associated Bloodstream Infections at a Tertiary Care Hospital Between 2011 and 2015: Epidemiology and Mortality Risk Factors

Abstract

Bloodstream infections (BSIs) are an important cause of mortality in hospitals. Local surveillance data should be taken into account to overcome these challenging infections. The aim of this study is to determine the microbiological characteristics of BSIs and the risk factors for mortality. Material and Method: Active prospective surveillance data based on patient and laboratory were evaluated from January 2011 to June 2015. The first episodes of primary BSIs of the patients were included to the study. CDC case definitions were used to define BSIs. The data were recorded included demographics, underlying conditions, invasive procedures, fever (>=38°C) or hypothermia (
