Blood culture Checks for bacteria or other microorganisms in a blood sample ( most cultures check for bacteria ) A minimum of 10 ml of blood is taken through veni puncture and injected into two or more “blood bottles”
Negative results in a blood culture indicate what? Negative results indicate that no bacteria or other micro organisms were found in the blood
Positive results in a blood culture indicate what ? Positive results indicate that bacteria or another microorganism was found in the blood
What is done following positive blood culture results ? Following positive results a sensitivity test is done to see which antibiotic can beat get rid of the bacteria
