Bloodstream infections remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality despite notable advances in their diagnosis and treatment. C-reactive protein/serum albumin ratio and the quick Pitt bacteremia score are two useful tools for clinicians to assess severity and predict mortality risk in patients with sepsis attributable to bloodstream infections. This study examined the relationship between C-reactive protein/serum albumin ratio and Q Pitt bacteremia score with all-cause in-hospital mortality in patients with bloodstream infections.
