摘要

Our aim was to determine risk factors of enterococcal bacteraemia (EB) in urology. In a prospective study including all positive blood cultures (PBC) in urology for 18 months in five institutions, one hundred seventy-six PBC diagnosed, including 111 cases related to Gram negative bacilli (63%), 32 EB (18%) and 33 cases related to other pathogens (19%). The main characteristic of EB was their occurrence exclusively in male gender. In logistic regression, EB appeared to be associated with transurethral resection of the prostate: adjusted odds ratio (AOR) [95% CI]: 3.75 [1.30-10.78].
