Exclusion Criteria

1. Age under 18 years
2. Refusal to participate in the study
3. Positive blood culture for the 72 hours follow-up (ex. for Staphylococcus aureus bacteriemia).
4. Patients with blood PCR tests ordered outside the established research protocol and the established randomization. (PCR test ordered by the attending physician due to the patient's severe condition). * in our hospital, the doctor can order a PCR test from blood on his own in the case of a patient in a life-threatening condition, in shock, or for other reasons. Such patients will not be eligible for our study. They may constitute an interesting group of patients in the future, which can be compared with group A planned by our team, where, in addition to the blood PCR test, consultations will be provided on the correct treatment with the appropriate selection of ATB as well as the dosage and duration of treatment.
