摘　　要：Objective Blood culture remains the gold standard for diagnosing bloodstream infections.Clinical laboratories must ensure the quality of blood culture processes from receipt to obtaining definitive results.We examined laboratory analytical indicators associated with positive blood culture results.Methods Blood cultures collected from Peking Union Medical College Hospital between January 1,2020,and December 31,2022,were retrospectively analyzed.The mode of transportation(piping logistics delivery vs.staff),source of blood cultures(outpatient/emergency department vs.inpatient department),rotation of personnel,and time of reception(8:00–19:59 vs.20:00–07:59)were compared between blood culture-positive and-negative results.Results Between 2020 and 2022,the total positive rate of blood culture was 8.07%.The positive rate of blood cultures in the outpatient/emergency department was significantly higher than that in the inpatient department(12.46%vs.5.83%;P<0.0001).The time-to-detection of blood cultures was significantly affected by the delivery mode and personnel rotation.The blood culture positive rate of the total pre-analytical time within 1 h was significantly higher than that within 1–2 h or>2 h(P<0.0170).Conclusion Laboratory analytical indicators such as patient source,transportation mode,and personnel rotation significantly impacted the positive detection rate or time of blood culture.
