Performance and Clinical Utility of Follow-Up Blood Cultures in the NICU: A 10-Year Retrospective Study

2026-02-17

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Background Persistent bacteraemia is rare in adults with gram-negative rod (GNR) infections when appropriate antimicrobial therapy is administered, and routine follow-up blood cultures (FUBCs) are not generally recommended. However, neonates in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) have unique immunological vulnerabilities and device-related risks that may predispose them to persis...
