Nosocomial Bacterial Meningitis

van de Beek, Diederik, Drake, James M., Tunkel, Allan R.·2010·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Nosocomial bacterial meningitis is most often related to either complicated head trauma or invasive procedures, such as craniotomy, placement of ventricular catheters, intrathecal infusion of medications, or spinal anesthesia. In addition, metastatic infection from hospital-acquired bacteremia occasionally leads to meningitis. The conditions are associated with different pathogenetic mechanisms and a different spectrum of microorganisms, and therefore the choice of empirical antimicrobial therapy will vary according to the condition.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
