The blood is normally a Asepsis sterile environment, so the detection of bacteria in the blood most commonly with blood culture s is always abnormal. Bacteria can enter the bloodstream as a severe complication of infection s like pneumonia or meningitis , during surgery especially when involving mucous membranes such as the gastrointestinal tract , or due to catheters and other foreign bodies entering the arteries or veins including intravenous drug abuse . Bacteremia can have several consequences. The immune response to the bacteria can cause sepsis and septic shock , which has a relatively high mortality rate . Bacteria can also use the blood to spread to other parts of the body which is called hematogenous spread , causing infections away from the original site of infection. Examples include endocarditis or osteomyelitis . Treatment is with antibiotics , and prevention with Antimicrobial prophylaxis antibiotic prophylaxis can be given in situations where problems are to be expected. Definition Bacteremia is the presence of viable bacteria in the blood stream.

United States American researchers, who traveled to China in the 1970 s during the late Cultural Revolution 1966 1976 , found that there were numerous conferences in factories and in health centers about the importance of family planning and uses of contraceptives. In the Cultural Revolution, the People s Republic of China began implementing women s health care policy. It is individualistic in each case but most people follow the one child policy . In some instances the male or female would be sterilized, or more commonly abortion was recommended Wegman, 222 . Healthcare was something that women workers are entitled too. It was required that every female worker in China receives urinalysis and systematic vaginal examinations every year Wegman, 222 . Maternity The researchers found that pregnant women received a large amount of attention from their supervisors, community, and local health workers. Those who worked on farms were not allowed to work after their 28th week of pregnancy . After the child was born, mothers could leave their child at a day care center, though they were usually left at home for the grandmother to take care of. Those who worked in factories received check ups at work, were allowed less work hours, and when their child was born, day care was provided with hours to breast feed. Breast feeding was a common practice with factory workers, and farmers were able to take every few hours off to feed their child. Many females during their first month of pregnancy visited the local midwife, to make sure everything is fine and establish a comfortable relationship. Every month after, the midwife would take blood pressure to check for toxemia . For those working in factories, the in house health worker was the person that administered the biological pregnancy test. This is because every female worker had to fill out a menstruation card and it was the responsibility of the heath worker to notice when a few days have been missed.
