Simple indictor of increased blood culture contamination rate by detection of coagulase-negative staphylococci
Abstract Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are the most frequent contaminating bacteria; therefore, we aimed to investigate an indicator of CoNS to predict the increase in blood culture contamination rate (ConR). We performed a retrospective study of selected patients, who underwent blood cult...
