All patients(n = 1,745) with nosocomial bloodstream infection identified between 1986 and 1991 at a single 900-bed tertiary care hospital were studied to identify microbiological factors independently associated with mortality due to the infection. Patients were identified by prospective, case-based surveillance and positive blood cultures, Mortality rates were examined for secular trends. Prognostic factors were determined with use of univariate and multivariate analyses, and both derivation and validation sets were used, A total of 1,745 patients developed nosocomial bloodstream infection, The 28-day crude mortality was 22%, and crude in-hospital mortality was 35%, Factors independently (all P
