Blood cultures in neonates with percutaneous central venous catheters.
We compared the results of 74 pairs of blood cultures obtained simultaneously every two weeks from a peripheral vein and a percutaneously inserted central venous catheter in 38 newborns. Three babies (7.9%) had bacteraemia. In two of these the central catheter was colonised 48 hours beforehand.

Thus it is not surprising that meta-analysis of these disparate studies (which have not been scored by traditional methods to assess for bias and scientific rigor) would find statistical significance only in success of line insertion. ...
متن کاملGenotypic study documents divergence in the pathogenesis of bloodstream infection related central venous catheters in neonates.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the pathogenesis of bloodstream infection by Staphylococcus epidermidis, using the molecular epidemiology, in high-risk neonates. METHODS We conducted a prospective study of a cohort of neonates with bloodstream infection using central venous catheters for more than 24h. "National Healthcare Safety Network" surveillance was conducted. Genotyping was performed by DNA f...
متن کاملShould central venous catheters be removed as soon as candidemia is detected in neonates?
BACKGROUND Controversy exists regarding the most appropriate acute management of central venous catheters (CVCs) in neonates with candidemia, with up to two thirds of neonatologists preferring to attempt antifungal therapy without removing CVCs. OBJECTIVE To determine whether CVCs should be removed as soon as candidemia is detected in neonates. Methods. A cohort study of candidemia and CVC wa...
