What do doctors mean by moderate growth of klebsiella pneumoniae?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Semiquantification: Moderate growth, or scant growth or heavy growth, of an organism is a way of quantifying the amount of organisms in a culture. This does not mean that the organism is necessarily relevant as cultures from some sites can reflect colonization.
