Abstract

According to studies, BSI are the infection present in blood , through which it can circulate to each and every organ in the body. Studies have also shown that their presence can lead to various risk factors specially when we talk about neonatal septicemia. Aim: To evaluate & assess the bacterial presence and their AMSP among children below 14. Material & method: A prospective study with 1000 patients blood samples collection were done for evaluation of presence of bacteria witth the help of BC in different agar plates after incubation followed by assessing the bacteria sensitivity and resistance against medicine. Result: We found that out of 1000 blood samples 315 showed +ve BC with mainly males being affected approx 175 (55.55%) and finally high prevalence of gram +ve than –ve . Conclusion : Careful evaluation should be done before instituting therapy to avoid unnecessary use of antibiotics.
