Formal infectious diseases consultation is associated with decreased mortality in Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia

To determine the impact of infectious diseases consultation (IDC) in Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia. All MRSA bacteraemia and a random subset of MSSA bacteraemia were retrospectively analysed. Out of 599 SAB episodes, 162 (27%) were followed by an IDC. Patients with IDC were younger and more freq...
