==Background==
*A [[Gram Positive Bacteria]] in the [[Streptococcus Genus]]
*In general, low virulence pathogens and likely [[Blood Culture Contaminant]] unless risk factor (21-50% of positive blood cultures are clinically significant)<ref>Antibiotic Therapy for Positive Blood Cultures. Perez-Jorge EV, et al. Antimicrobe. http://www.antimicrobe.org/new/e38rev2.asp</ref>

==Types==
*Streptococcus milleri
*Streptococcus sanguis
*Streptococcus mitis
*Streptococcus bovis

==Risk Factors for Viridans Bacteremia<ref>Antibiotic Therapy for Positive Blood Cultures. Perez-Jorge EV, et al. Antimicrobe. http://www.antimicrobe.org/new/e38rev2.asp</ref>==
*neutropenia
*oral mucositis
*irradiation to the oral cavity
*antibiotic prophylaxis with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole or fluoroquinolones
*intravenous hyperalimentation
*high dose chemotherapy
