Understanding the diagnosis of catheter-related bloodstream infection: real-time monitoring of biofilm growth dynamics using time-lapse optical microscopy
BackgroundThe differential time to positivity (DTTP) technique is recommended for the conservative diagnosis of catheter-related bloodstream infection (C-RBSI). The technique is based on a 120-minute difference between microbial growth in blood drawn through the catheter and blood drawn through a pe...
