Sažetak
The predominance of S. pneumoniae as the main cause of IBD in our sample of hospitalised patients with confirmed etiologic diagnosis was recorded again and did not differ significantly from the last year data. It was the dominant cause of sepsis and meningitis in adults and dominant cause of sepsis in children. Opposite to that, N. meningitidis is still the main cause of meningitis in children. Once again thanks to the introduction of vaccination against H. influenzae type B in 2002 during the observed period IBD caused by H. influenzae was not recorded.
