  - OTHER - Gram negative
*This is a "wastebasket" code that includes all '''bacteria''' (Gram+ or Gram-) that have been speciated by the lab but where the specific organism is not on our list, ie there is no specific code.
Incl:P.Fluorescens pseudomonas
*For example, it includes:  
  - OTHER - Gram positive
**all other Gram-negatives of family ''Enterobacteriaceae'' that are not included separately in the list of [[Pathogens]]. They are a large FAMILY of gram negative [[Pathogens|pathogen]]s and '''not''' part of [[Enterobacter species]]Enterobacter is a genus (group of species) that is just ONE of the family Enterobacteriaceae.
Bacillus species is one type of Gram +ve.
**all Corynebacterium spp (gram +ve)
    If the patient IS being treated with antibiotics then code it as an infection. If patient is NOT treated with antibiotics then DO NOT code it as an infection. Contaminants should not be coded as infections.
*This code could also be used for infection with mixed bacteria that ARE believed to be true pathogens but have not (for some reason) been speciated.
