Is there bacteremia after suprapubic aspiration in children with urinary tract infections?
Abstract
It has been shown that bacteremia may occur after bladder puncture in animals. Whether this also happens in man is not known. Thirty-three patients who were suspected to have urinary tract infection were examined for bacteremia after suprapubic bladder puncture. Of these children 19 had infection. There was no positive blood culture in any of these cases after suprapubic bladder puncture.
