Clin Microbiol Infect 2012; 18: E170E176 Abstract Bloodstream infections (BSI) are a major cause of mortality, morbidity and medical cost, but few population-based studies have concomitantly evaluated BSI incidence and mortality. Data on BSI episodes reported to national, population-based surveillance by all clinical microbiology laboratories in Finland during 200407 were linked to vital statistics. Age-, sex and microbe-specific incidence and mortality rates were calculated. During 200407, 33 473 BSI episodes were identified; BSI incidence increased from 147 to 168 per 100 000 population (average annual increase, 4.4%; p
