Catheter Associated Blood Stream Infections in Patients Receiving Parenteral Nutrition: A Prospective Study of 850 Patients
BACKGROUND Data was prospectively collected on 850 consecutive patients undergoing central venous catheterisation (CVC) to receive total parenteral nutrition (TPN) in a major university teaching hospital over a 46 months period. METHODS Data included information about CVC insertion and clinical outcomes, most notably, suspected catheter-related blood stream infections (CRBSI). RESULTS The i...
متن کاملQuantitative blood cultures for catheter-associated infections.
The recent studies by Paya et al. (2) concluded that quantitative blood cultures were not useful in diagnosing intravascular-device-related bacteremia associated with arterial, central venous, and pulmonary artery catheters. While obviously more work needs to be done on the value of aspiration through a catheter in the diagnosis of catheterassociated sepsis, a number of studies have found this ...
متن کاملCatheter-related vs. catheter-associated blood stream infections in the intensive care unit: incidence, microbiology, and implications.
BACKGROUND Catheter-associated blood stream infections (CA-BSI) and catheter-related blood stream infections (CR-BSIs) differ in the degree of proof required to show that the catheter is the cause of the infection. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN; formerly the National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance [NNIS] group) collects da...
متن کاملEvaluation of Central Venous Catheter Associated Blood Stream Infections: A Microbiological Observational Study
There are substantial morbidity and mortality associated with vascular catheter use among crictically ill patients. The attributable mortality is 10% to 25% which is associated with bacteremia among those who are hospitalized. This study was undertaken to identify catheter related blood stream infections, to isolate pathogenic microorganisms present in intravascular catheter related local infec...
متن کاملCentral and peripheral venous lines-associated blood stream infections in the critically ill surgical patients
Critically ill surgical patients are always at increased risk of actual or potentially life-threatening health complications. Central/peripheral venous lines form a key part of their care. We review the current evidence on incidence of central and peripheral venous catheter-related bloodstream infections in critically ill surgical patients, and outline pathways for prevention and intervention. ...
