Ideal Sample Volume for Blood Cultures Clinical Trial
Official title:
Finding Ideal Blood Culture Volume in NICU
The investigators want to assess the effectivity of different sample volumes in blood cultures.
The investigators intend to compare yield of 0.5ml sample x2 vs 0.25 ml samples x2 (aerobic
and anaerobic media for each volume) taken from the sample taken from the same site and
time.
Time to positivity will also be compared, as well as possible contamination rates.
