Abstract

Little is known about the epidemiology of nosocomial urinary tract-related bloodstream infection. In a case series from an academic medical center,Enterococcus(28.7%) andCandida(19.6%) species were the predominant microorganisms, which suggests a potential shift from gram-negative microorganisms. A case-fatality rate of 32.8% highlights the severity of this condition.
