In general, whenever the diagnosis of meningitis is strongly considered, a lumbar puncture should be promptly performed. Examination of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is the cornerstone of the diagnosis. The diagnosis of bacterial meningitis is made by culture of the CSF sample.
Blood cultures may be positive up to 60% of the acute hematogenous osteomyelitis. Blood cultures are rarely positive in other forms of osteomyelitis. A negative blood culture cannot prove that osteomyelitis is absent. In order to obtain an accurate sampling of the pathogen a bone biopsy or deep aspirate is usually required.
