Core Tip |
Thrombocytopenia is common in sepsis and septic shock, but there are few reports on the diagnostic value of thrombocytopenia in bloodstream infection. Our results found that the rate of platelet drop but not the lowest platelet count has a high predictive ability for bloodstream infection in patients with sepsis or septic shock. However, it cannot identify gram-positive bacteraemia, gram-negative bacteraemia, and fungal infection. Dynamic detection of platelet counts appears to be an early alert for the clinician in identifying the site of infection and evaluating serious infection. This will guide the performance of blood cultures and the use of empirical antibiotics. |
