Central line maintenance bundles and CLABSIs in ambulatory oncology patients.
OBJECTIVE Pediatric oncology patients are frequently managed with central lines as outpatients, and these lines confer significant morbidity in this immune-compromised population. We aimed to investigate whether a multidisciplinary, central line maintenance care bundle reduces central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) and bacteremias in ambulatory pediatric oncology patients. M...

متن کاملImplementation of a central line maintenance care bundle in hospitalized pediatric oncology patients.
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether a multidisciplinary, best-practice central line maintenance care bundle reduces central line-associated blood stream infection (CLABSI) rates in hospitalized pediatric oncology patients and to further delineate the epidemiology of CLABSIs in this population. METHODS We performed a prospective, interrupted time series study of a best-practice bundle addressing ...
متن کاملPreventing CLABSIs among pediatric hematology/oncology inpatients: national collaborative results.
OBJECTIVES Central lines (CLs) are essential for the delivery of modern cancer care to children. Nonetheless, CLs are subject to potentially life-threatening complications, including central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs). The objective of this study was to assess the feasibility of a multicenter effort to standardize CL care and CLABSI tracking, and to quantify the impact of ...
متن کاملDecreasing PICU catheter-associated bloodstream infections: NACHRI's quality transformation efforts.
OBJECTIVE Despite the magnitude of the problem of catheter-associated bloodstream infections (CA-BSIs) in children, relatively little research has been performed to identify effective strategies to reduce these complications. In this study, we aimed to develop and evaluate effective catheter-care practices to reduce pediatric CA-BSIs. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Our study was a multi-institution...
