Monocyte Distribution Width (MDW) in the General Population of Emergency Department Patients With and Without Bacteremia

Running, not enrolling

Conditions studied: Bacteremia, Bacteremia Sepsis, Sepsis, Septic Shock, Severe Sepsis, Emergency Departments, Continuity of Patient Care

In brief

This project will evaluate the usefulness of Monocyte Distribution Width (MDW) for the diagnosis of blood culture positivity (BSI) in patients in the Emergency Department (ED) and reevaluate the usefulness of MDW in patients with BSI and sepsis. Consequently, if MDW indicate a high likelihood of bacteremia antibiotic management in patients with suspected bacterial infections will be changed and aid appropriate antibiotic administration.
