52. www.hha.org.au Basically….. A patient episode of SAB will be categorised as healthcare-associated if First SAB blood culture collected >48 hours after hospital admission and < 48 hrs after discharge. First SAB collected <48 hours after hospital admission, with one or more key clinical criteria met.

53. www.hha.org.au Contaminated Specimens.. A contaminated specimen can produce a false positive result Contamination of blood cultures is rare in adults (1- 2% of culture positive episodes) and more common in children (5-10%). If, in the evaluation of a potential event: – the clinical picture is unsupportive of infection – repeat blood culture(s) are negative –no antimicrobial treatment is given Then the positive blood culture should be regarded as a contamination and not reported
