The influence on therapy of blood culture results was monitored over a 3-month period. Approximately half the patients yielding significant cultures commenced initial or altered antibiotic treatment on the basis of laboratory results. Therapy based on a defined antibiotic policy was found to be satisfactory in most instances. Whilst an antibiotic policy allows effective treatment of many patients, there remains a need for an early microbiological diagnosis.
在3个月的时间里监测了血培养结果对治疗的影响。约一半血培养结果呈阳性的患者根据实验室结果开始了初始或调整后的抗生素治疗。发现在大多数情况下，基于明确抗生素策略的治疗是令人满意的。虽然抗生素策略能有效治疗许多患者，但仍需要早期微生物学诊断。
