Identification and validation of clinical phenotypes in Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infection and their association with mortality (FEN-AUREUS study)

Abstract excerpt

Background: bacteraemia (SAB) is heterogeneous in patients and infection-related features. The aim of the study was to identify clinical phenotypes among patients with SAB, to evaluate their association with mortality, and to derive and validate a simplified probabilistic model for phenotypes assignment. Methods: Phenotypes were derived using two-stage cluster analysis of 2128 patients from the ISAC cohort...
