Evaluation of time to positivity for blood culture combined with immature granulocytes, neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio, and CRP in identifying bloodstream coagulase‐negative <i>Staphylococci</i> infection in pediatric patients

Abstract

TTP within 24 hours indicates likelihood of CoNS as the pathogenic agent in pediatric patient blood culture. The combination of TTP with IG% CRP and NLR might improve the diagnostic accuracy.
