Background: This study analysed patterns of requests for repeated blood cultures and the microorganisms isolated in follow-up cultures. Methods: The frequencies and intervals of repeated blood cultures performed during January and February of 2010 at seven university-affiliated hospitals in Korea were evaluated. Results of microbiological cultures at follow-up were analysed with respect to pathogen replication, immune clearance, appearance of new pathogens, and skin contaminants. Results: Among 3,072 patients who received repeated blood cultures, the average number of requests was 3.2. Of the 5,241 follow-up blood culture events recorded, durations of 1, 2, and 3 days between cultures were identified for 23.1%, 21.4%, and 15.0% of events, respectively. Relative to each initial culture, persistent pathogen growth in subsequent culture(s) accounted for 2.3% of events, whereas immune clearance was confirmed in 8.5% of events. Previously undetected pathogens were isolated in 5.2% of the follow-up cultures, the majority of which grew after an interval of six days. Skin contaminants were detected in 7.6% of the repeated cultures, and 76.1% of the follow-ups displayed no growth of microorganisms. Conclusion: The most common numbers of repeat culture requests were two and three, and these were typically performed within three days of the initial culture. Among the follow-up cultures, new pathogens were identified in 5.2%, and the majority of this group likely presented for follow-up during a new disease episode.
