Gram-negative bloodstream infections
International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2009Gram-negative bloodstream infection (BSI) is both dangerous and challenging. The incidence of Gram-negative BSI rises with age in both men and women, but there are still some gender differences in terms of aetiology and acquisition. Clinical elements such as organ dysfunction are helpful in determining prognosis.

Gram-negative bloodstream infections
International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2008Over the last 22 years we have prospectively recorded data for bloodstream infections (BSIs) in our institution. We reflect the experience of a tertiary teaching hospital with 1750-2500 beds that served a population ranging during the study period from 650,000 to 750,000 inhabitants. Definitions and microbiological methods were standard.
