Validation of the Proposed Definition for Complicated Coagulase-negative Staphylococcal Bacteremia
The proposed definition for complicated CoNS bacteremia failed to identify patients at higher risk for mortality in our cohort. Our findings highlight the importance of ID consultation in guiding antimicrobial treatment and recommending source control interventions for patients with CoNS bacteremia.
