Although spiral bacteria are uncommon, they cause bacteremia. We evaluated their characteristics, in particular, the time from the start of blood culture to the first report of a positive result to physicians, using the BACTEC blood culture system. In cases of spiral bacteremia, an extended treatment period should be considered.
虽然螺旋菌并不常见，但它们会引起菌血症。我们使用 BACTEC 血培养系统评估了它们的特征，特别是从开始血培养到首次向医生报告阳性结果的时间。在出现螺旋菌血症的情况下，应考虑延长治疗期。
