Innovation for reducing blood culture contamination: initial specimen diversion technique.
We hypothesized that diversion of the first milliliter of venipuncture blood-the initial specimen diversion technique (ISDT)-would eliminate incompletely sterilized fragments of skin from the culture specimen and significantly reduce our blood culture contamination rate (R). We studied our hypothesis prospectively beginning with our control culture (C) definition: one venipuncture with two sequ...
متن کاملReduction in Blood Culture Contamination Through Use of Initial Specimen Diversion Device
Background Blood culture contamination is a clinically significant problem that results in patient harm and excess cost. Methods In a prospective, controlled trial at an academic center Emergency Department, a device that diverts and sequesters the initial 1.5-2 mL portion of blood (which presumably carries contaminating skin cells and microbes) was tested against standard phlebotomy procedur...
متن کاملDiversion of first blood volume results in a reduction of bacterial contamination for whole-blood collections.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In a previous study we established a reliable setpoint for the prevalence of bacteria in whole blood. In the present study we investigated the possible preventive effect, of diversion of the first 10 ml of a blood donation, on the bacterial contamination rate. MATERIALS AND METHODS To divert the first 10 ml of a whole-blood donation, we used a special five-bag system...

این مطالعه در سال 1386-87 در آزمایشگاه و مزرعه پژوهشی دانشگاه صنعتی اصفهان به منظور تعیین مناسب ترین تیمار بذری و ارزیابی اثر پرایمینگ بر روی سه رقم گلرنگ تحت سه رژیم آبیاری انجام گرفت. برخی از مطالعات اثرات سودمند پرایمینگ بذر را بر روی گیاهان مختلف بررسی کرده اند اما در حال حاضر اطلاعات کمی در مورد خصوصیات مربوط به جوانه زنی، مراحل نموی، عملکرد و خصوصیات کمی و کیفی بذور تیمار شده ژنوتیپ های م...
Effect of flow diversion treatment on very small ruptured aneurysms.
BACKGROUND Ruptured aneurysms of < 2 mm are not amenable to endovascular coiling and therefore pose a significant treatment challenge. OBJECTIVE To test recently introduced flow diverters that allow endovascular reconstruction via another method and may represent a new treatment option for such lesions. PATIENTS AND METHODS Three female patients presented with acute subarachnoid hemorrhage....
