Aetiology of bloodstream infections in cancer patients at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital from 2010 to 2013. Differing superscripts within years are significantly different at the p value <0.05. No significant difference in prevalence of Gram-positive, and Gram-negative organisms was noted within the years of study. For each year, the number of fungi recovered was significantly (p value <0.05) less compared to Gram-positive, and Gram-negative bacteria. Changes in incidence of Gram negatives, Gram positives, or fungi over the 4-year period were not significant (p value >0.05 for each group, Chi-square for trend analysis)
