Bacteraemia/candidaemia

Our cohort aims to investigate the association between bacteraemia and infection of prosthetic material, such as prosthetic joints, and to identify predictors of mortality of either bacteraemia or candidaemia. We specifically focus on assessing the impact of early interventions, such as infectious diseases consultation, appropriate antimicrobial treatment, and source control, on outcomes.
