Independent risk factors for Pseudomonas spp. bloodstream infection in community-onset patients and assignment of scores based on regression coefficients obtained from multivariate logistic regression analysis. Dates expressed as adjusted OR ^a (95% CI), p value.

Variables	Adjusted a OR (95% CI)	p	Score Points
Male sex	1.89 (1.14–3.12)	0.01	1
Haematological malignancy	2.45 (1.20–4.99)	0.01	1
