prednisone and Bacteremia

prednisone has been researched along with Bacteremia in 34 studies

Prednisone: A synthetic anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid derived from CORTISONE. It is biologically inert and converted to PREDNISOLONE in the liver.
prednisone : A synthetic glucocorticoid drug that is particularly effective as an immunosuppressant, and affects virtually all of the immune system. Prednisone is a prodrug that is converted by the liver into prednisolone (a beta-hydroxy group instead of the oxo group at position 11), which is the active drug and also a steroid.

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.

"We reviewed the clinical features and laboratory findings of 27 infants with infantile spasms treated with adrenocorticotropic hormone or prednisone during febrile episodes in order to evaluate the incidence of bacteremia, the risk of serious infection, determination of whether serious infections can be identified at presentation and the outcome of febrile episodes."3.68Risk of infection during adrenocorticotropic hormone treatment in infants with infantile spasms.
