摘要: Objective To assess whether introduction of an evidence-based percutaneously inserted central catheter (PICC) care bundle reduced the risk line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI), thus altering comparative CLABSI in infants. Study design This retrospective cohort study included all infants for whom umbilical venous (UVC) was placed as part routine between Jan 1, 2006, and Dec 31, 2009, a period during which standardized PICC insertion bundles were introduced. Duration UVC use divided ≤7 days >7 days. Results Infants group had 1.0 CLABSI/1000 days, 4.0 ( P 7 greater (OR, 5.48) than group. rate increased more rapidly with increasing duration rose. Conclusions Replacement when access is needed after age may reduce CLABSI.
