The 17 pages that link to Bacteremia, each with the reason it gives.

• SepsisCompared with: Bacteria in blood can occur without sepsis, and sepsis can occur without bacteremia.

• Staphylococcus aureusRelated: S. aureus bacteremia can seed distant organs and carries a substantial risk of death.

• CellulitisNarrower topic: In severe cases, bacteria can enter the blood and extend infection beyond the skin.

• ProbioticsRelated: Rare bloodstream infections have been associated with probiotic organisms, especially in vulnerable patients.

• Blood cultureBroader topic: Blood cultures are commonly used to confirm and characterize bacteremia.

• Streptococcus pneumoniaeRelated: Pneumococcal bacteremia marks spread beyond the respiratory tract and can accompany invasive disease.

• ViremiaCompared with: It is the analogous bloodstream finding for bacteria rather than viruses.

• Infective endocarditisRelated: Circulating bacteria can adhere to damaged or susceptible endocardial surfaces.

• Typhoid feverRelated: Bloodstream spread helps make typhoid a systemic infection.

• Bacillus cereusRelated: Invasive Bacillus cereus infections can enter the blood, especially in vulnerable patients.

• SalmonellosisRelated: Invasive salmonellosis can allow bacteria to enter the blood and spread beyond the gut.

• BacteroidesRelated: Gut Bacteroides can enter blood after tissue disruption or abdominal infection.

• Bacteroides fragilisRelated: Bloodstream infection can follow translocation of B. fragilis from damaged intestinal sites.

• ErysipelasRelated: Although uncommon in uncomplicated cases, bloodstream spread is a concern in severe infection.

• Staphylococcal infectionRelated: Staphylococcal bacteremia can signal bloodstream invasion and requires careful evaluation.

• Bloodstream infectionRelated: Bacteria in blood are a common form of bloodstream infection, though bacteremia alone does not prove active infection.

• Acute prostatitisRelated: Manipulating an infected prostate can introduce bacteria into blood, so prostate massage is avoided.
