Minocycline-EDTA lock solution prevents catheter-related bacteremia in hemodialysis.
There is growing concern about the development of antibacterial resistance with the use of antibiotics in catheter lock solutions. The use of an antibiotic that is not usually used to treat other serious infections may be an alternative that may reduce the clinical impact should resistance develop. We conducted a randomized controlled trial to compare a solution of minocycline and EDTA with the...
متن کاملUse of antimicrobial catheter lock solutions to prevent catheter-related bacteremia.
Catheter-related bacteremia is an important source of morbidity and mortality in hemodialysis patients. A number of well-designed, controlled, prospective trials using antimicrobial catheter lock solutions to prevent catheter-related bacteremia have shown a dramatic, statistically significant decrease in not only infection but also mortality related to catheter-related bacteremia. Despite evide...
متن کاملManagement of the catheter in documented catheter-related coagulase-negative staphylococcal bacteremia: remove or retain?
BACKGROUND Studies and guidelines recommending the retention of the central venous catheter (CVC) in patients with coagulase-negative staphylococcal bacteremia were based on loose definitions of bacteremia and/or did not evaluate the risk of recurrence. In this study, we used strict definitions of coagulase-negative staphylococcal bacteremia to determine the impact of CVC retention on response ...
متن کاملPersistent Catheter-Related Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia after Catheter Removal and Initiation of Antimicrobial Therapy
OBJECTIVES Catheter-related Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (CRSAB) occasionally persists despite catheter removal and initiation of appropriate antimicrobial therapy. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of persistent CRSAB after catheter removal and initiation of antimicrobial therapy. METHODS Consecutive patients with CRSAB were prospectively in...
متن کاملCatheter lock solutions influence staphylococcal biofilm formation on abiotic surfaces.
BACKGROUND Microbial biofilms form on central venous catheters and may be associated with systemic infections as well as decreased dialysis efficiency due to catheter thrombosis. The most widely used anticoagulant catheter lock solution in the US is sodium heparin. We have previously shown that sodium heparin in clinically relevant concentrations enhances Staphylococcus aureus biofilm formation...
