Epidemiology and microbiological features of anaerobic bacteremia in two French University hospitals

Bacteremia implicating anaerobic bacteria (BIAB) represents 2–6% of all episodes of bacteremia and is associated with high mortality. In this retrospective study from June 2015 to December 2016, we compared BIAB frequency in two hospital centers in Montpellier (France): Montpellier university hospit...

Zusammenfassung:Bacteremia implicating anaerobic bacteria (BIAB) represents 2–6% of all episodes of bacteremia and is associated with high mortality. In this retrospective study from June 2015 to December 2016, we compared BIAB frequency in two hospital centers in Montpellier (France): Montpellier university hospital (MUH) and a center specialized in cancer (ICM). Among the 2465 microbiologically relevant episodes of bacteremia, we identified 144 (5.8%) in which anaerobic bacteria were implicated. BIAB frequency was higher at ICM than MUH (10.4%, vs. 4.9%, p
