A Model for Intracranial Bacterial Infection After Neurosurgery Integrating Bacterial Culture and Genetic Testing

Key Points

• Early risk stratification improves diagnostic accuracy for post-neurosurgical bacterial infections.
• The model incorporates both bacterial culture results and genetic testing for comprehensive evaluation.
• Analysis utilized a nomogram to provide a reliable tool for clinicians assessing infection risk.
• Timely application of this model may enhance therapeutic decisions, improving patient outcomes.
