Incidence, prognosis and need of performing blood cultures for anaerobic bacteria are
under debate, mainly due to the belief that the presence of anaerobes in blood can be easily …

Despite a low incidence, anaerobic bacteremia remains a serious and often underestimated
condition. This retrospective study aims to describe the epidemiology of anaerobic …

Strict anaerobes have been reported to account for 0.5–13% of episodes of bacteremia in

In order to identify current trends in anaerobic bacteraemia, a 10-year retrospective study
was performed in the University Hospital Brussel, Belgium. All clinically relevant …

Background Anaerobic bacteria can cause various infections, and their incidence may differ
greatly, depending on the country or hospital. We investigated recent trends in anaerobe …

Anaerobic bacteremia (AB) is usually detected in about 0.5–13% of positive blood cultures.
The aim of this study was to determine prevalence of anaerobic bacteremia over a 5-year …

Bacteraemia due to anaerobic bacteria occurs infrequently, making the systematic use of an
anaerobic blood sample bottle in patients with sepsis controversial. We retrospectively …

Introduction: This retrospective study was performed to evaluate the frequency of anaerobic
bacteraemia over a 10-year period, and to provide updated antibiotic susceptibilities for the …
