866Observational Study of Central Venous Catheter (CVC) Occlusions and Central Line-Associated Blood Stream Infections (CLABSI) Using the Clave™ Negative Displacement Connector
Background. We performed a year-long observational study in a large cohort of patients to evaluate the incidence of CLABSI and CVC lumen occlusion using a negative displacement connector in a setting where disinfection caps containing 70% isopropyl alcohol cover all unused connectors. Methods. CVCs placed between October 2012 and October 2013 at NorthShore (4 hospitals, 832 beds) were prospecti...
