 | | Time to occurrence of first bacteremia among patients born in the pre- and post-HAART eras was analyzed using survival analysis. | | | Methods: The Perinatal AIDS Collaborative Transmission Study (PACTS) is a CDC-sponsored multi-center, prospective cohort study of HIV-exposed infants, enrolled during 1986 to 1999 to monitor mother-to-child transmission and natural history of pediatric HIV disease. | | | Bacillus species, in patients without indwelling catheters and all non-aureus |

| | Transient bacteremia associated with surgical procedures or with indwelling IV or urinary catheters is often undetected and requires no therapy except in patients with valvular heart disease, intravascular prostheses, or immunosuppression. | | | Gram-negative bacteremia is typically intermittent and opportunistic; although it may have no effect on a healthy person, it may be seriously important in immunocompromised patients with debilitating underlying diseases, after chemotherapy, and in settings of malnutrition. | | | It may also follow a dental procedure in patients at risk, and especially in patients with valvular heart disease, prosthetic heart valves, or other intravascular prostheses. |

| | IS IT WISE TO GIVE THE FEBRILE CHILD AN ANTIBIOTIC? - Journal Watch (General) |
| | Of the 2.8% of the children who were bacteremic, the treated group had a faster resolution of fever but did not experience fewer major infectious complications; furthermore, diarrhea developed more frequently in the treated group. | | | While the use of antibiotics undoubtedly will not benefit most febrile children, the clinician still is justified in using antibiotics when clinical criteria suggest the risk of bacteremia is highest. | | | Despite its size, the study was not large enough to consider the value of treatment in subgroups of children who may be at especially high risk of bacteremia and bacteremic complications: children less than 24 months of age, and children with elevated white counts (greater than 15,000 in particular). |
