Bacteriological blood culture for microflora with determination of sensitivity to antibiotics (blood sterility) *

Normally, blood should be sterile (there should be no microorganisms in it). But under certain circumstances there are risks of blood contamination by microorganisms:

Surgical interventions.
Dental procedures.
Cosmetic procedures.
Exacerbation of chronic diseases.
The presence of chronic foci of infections.

These factors can lead to bacteremia (the release of bacteria and their toxins into the blood) and undesirable consequences that can become complicated, including sepsis and meningitis. When bacterial colonies are localized in a certain organ, a lot of pathologies can occur, such as pericarditis, pyelonephritis, articular syndrome, wedge-shaped infarctions of internal organs, etc.
