Effect of the initial specimen diversion technique on blood culture contamination rates.

Khalifa Binkhamis1, Kevin Forward.   

Abstract

The initial specimen diversion technique (ISDT) was first described by Patton and Schmitt (J. Clin. Microbiol. 48:4501-4503, 2010, doi:10.1128/JCM.00910-10). This study looked at the effect of implementation of the ISDT on blood culture contamination rates at our center. We found a reduction of 30.34% in potential blood culture contaminants.
