Abstract

Dolaşım sistemi infeksiyonlarının tanısı için alınan kan kültürlerinin değerlendirilmesi bazen problem oluşturmaktadır. Kan kültür sonucunun klinik yönden değerlendirilmesi alınan kan kültür sayısı, kültürlerin alınma zamanı, alınan kan miktarı, alım teknikleri, deri antisepsisi, kanı alan kişinin bu konuda eğitimli olup olmaması gibi hemen her aşamada pek çok faktörden etkilenmektedir. Bu yazıda kan kültür sonucunu etkileyen faktörler hakkında ayrıntılı bilgiler verilmiştir. Anahtar kelimeler: Kan kültürü, Kan alma prosedürü

Factors For Interpreting Blood Culture Results

Abstract

Interpretation of blood cultures is a common problem in the diagnosis of blood stream infections. Clinical interpretation of blood culture results is affected with the number of cultures obtained, timing of the cultures, volume of the blood cultured, the collection procedure, skin antisepsis and phlebotomists drawing blood cultures. This review has provide more detail information about the factors that have affected blood culture results. Key words: Blood culture, Collection procedure

Keywords
