Enfermedades Infecciosas y Microbiología Clínica
Persistent Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (SAB) is associated with high mortality and requires prompt identification and control of the infectious source. Prostatic abscesses, though rare, are an underrecognized cause of persistent SAB, especially in patients with urinary symptoms and comorbidities.We present two cases of persistent methicillin ...

Persistence in Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia: Incidence, characteristics of patients and outcome

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2006
Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia often persists. The reasons for persistence and its outcome are poorly defined. We conducted a prospective-observational study among 245 consecutive S. aureus (MRSA: n=125; MSSA: n=120) bacteremias (>or=1 positive blood cultures (BC)) among 234 adults (18-103-y-old; median=59 y) hospitalized during 1 January 2002-31 ...

Epidemiology and clinical significance of persistent bacteremia in severely burned patients

Burns
The utility of follow-up blood cultures (FUBC) for gram-negative bloodstream infections (BSIs) are controversial due to low rates of positivity. However, recent studies suggest higher rates of positivity in critically ill patients. The utility of FUBC in gram-negative BSI in patients with severe burn injuries is unknown.Patients ≥ 18 years old admitted

Bacteremia in the Hemodialyzed Patient

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1979
In this issue of theArchives(see p 1255), Nsouli et al have reviewed perhaps the largest series of bacteremic episodes in patients with acute or chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis. They report strikingly high incidences of bacteremic infections in both groups: 9.5% in patients with chronic renal failure, and nearly 11% in patients with acute
