Blood culture practices in patients with a central line at an academic medical center-Iowa, 2020. Antimicrobial stewardship & healthcare epidemiology : ASHE Kovoor, E., Kobayashi, T., Sheeler, L. L., Trannel, A., Etienne, W., Abosi, O., Holley, S., Dains, A., Jenn, K. E., Meacham, H., Hanna, B., Marra, A. R., Parsons, M., Ford, B., Wellington, M., Diekema, D. J., Salinas, J. L. 2022; 2 (1): e64Abstract
