Abstract

Objectives: To determine clinical characteristics, treatment and risk factors associated with mortality of blood stream infection patients.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study of adult patients diagnosed blood stream infection (BSI) who were hospitalized at Mukdahan hospital from October 1, 2020 to September 30, 2021. Medical records were reviewed and data were analyzed

Results: In total 261 medical records were reviewed. Of these 132 (50.6%) were male and mean age (+SD) was 63.2 (+16.4) years. Mortality rate was 17.6% (45/261). Underlying disease were identified in 204 (78.2%) cases. Blood culture were positive for Gram negatives bacteria 176 (67.4%) cases. Ninety-one cases (34.9%) met criteria of septic shock. Antibiotic treatment initiated within 1 hour after sepsis diagnosed and appropriate antibiotic in 24 hours were 176 (67.4%) and 246 (94.2%) cases respectively. Factor associated with increase mortality was cardiovascular failure.

Conclusions: Mortality rate of blood stream infection was high. Factor associated with increase mortality was cardiovascular failure.
