Popis: Blood culturing (BC) remains the gold standard for bloodstream diagnosis but its workflow is slow. We aimed reducing this time by implementing a new automated incubator with a 24/7 BC workflow. With this new strategy, time to incubation was shorter (1.52 h vs 6.82 h), positivity rates were higher (10.6% vs 8.9%, p
