Résumé
Bloodstream infection (BSI) is a constant threat for hospitalized patients, and elderly patients are particularly susceptible to BSI caused by anaerobic bacteria. Changes in the gut microbiota composition may lead to pathogen overgrowth and translocation into the bloodstream. Consequently, domination of specific taxa in the intestinal bacterial community seems to be associated with a higher risk of bacteremia in some patient populations. Here, we report the case of a 90-year-old heart failure (HF) patient who was admitted to the hospital for an acute state of cardiac decompensation. Twenty days after admission, he was febrile to 38.2 We provide the first evidence for a clinically significant BSI caused by

METHODS
Here, we report the case of a 90-year-old heart failure (HF) patient who was admitted to the hospital for an acute state of cardiac decompensation. Twenty days after admission, he was febrile to 38.2
