Microbiological and Clinical Characteristics of Bloodstream Infections in General Intensive Care Unit: A Retrospective Study.

Background: Bloodstream infections (BSI) are one of the common causes of morbidity and mortality in hospitals; however, the pathogenic spectrum and bacterial antibiotic resistance vary across the world. Therefore, identifying the pathogenic spectrum and changes in bacterial antibiotic resistance is critical in controlling BSI and preventing the irrational use of antibiotics. This study evaluated the microbiological and clinical data of BSI patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) of Tianjin Medical University General Hospital in Tianjin, China, to guide the selection of empirical antibiotic therapy.
