Increasing Bacteremia Due to Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci: Fiction or Reality?

1998-08-01

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND:The role of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) in bacteremias continues to be controversial.Until the 1970s, CNS were mostly recognized as contaminants, being part of the cutaneous flora.Since then, several studies have reported increasing incidence and severity of infections due to CNS. PURPOSE:To review the literature concerning the epidemiology of CNS bacteremia in the United States and Europe wi...
