| Table 2: Summary of plasma C-reactive protein concentration (CRP,
mg/ml), blood white cell count (×10e9), systolic blood pressure
(mmHg), diastolic blood pressure (mmHg), heart rate (beats per
minute), age of patient (years), and body temperature (°C) at the time
when the blood cultures were drawn divided according to origin of the
infection and antimicrobial susceptibility. Penicillin-sensitive (pen S)
bacteria represent Streptococcus isolates and penicillin-resistant (pen
R) are Enterococcus isolated. *=p<0.05, **=p<0.01. Number of isolates
in each condition is shown (n). |
