prednisolone and Bacteremia

prednisolone has been researched along with Bacteremia in 18 studies

Prednisolone: A glucocorticoid with the general properties of the corticosteroids. It is the drug of choice for all conditions in which routine systemic corticosteroid therapy is indicated, except adrenal deficiency states.
prednisolone : A glucocorticoid that is prednisone in which the oxo group at position 11 has been reduced to the corresponding beta-hydroxy group. It is a drug metabolite of prednisone.

Bacteremia: The presence of viable bacteria circulating in the blood. Fever, chills, tachycardia, and tachypnea are common acute manifestations of bacteremia. The majority of cases are seen in already hospitalized patients, most of whom have underlying diseases or procedures which render their bloodstreams susceptible to invasion.

Placebo2

Visual Analog Scale(VAS) for Pain - Day 1 to 48 Hours

The level of pain as measured by a Visual Analog Scale(VAS) measured once at day 1 and once during the 48th hour follow-up visit. Minimum value 0, maximum value 100mm, higher scores corresponds to more pain/worse outcomes. (NCT01671423)
