An overview of the use of central venous catheters impregnated with drugs or with inorganic nanoparticles as a strategy in preventing infections
(2022-03-05)
Central venous catheter (CVC) is a medical device widely used in therapeutics to avoid repetitive venipuncture. Although its use is advantageous, it is possible to highlight limitations, such as the risk of catheter-related ...
Differential time to positivity and quantitative cultures for noninvasive diagnosis of catheter-related blood stream infection in children
(Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2008)
Background: Accurate diagnosis of catheter-related blood stream infection (CRBSI) is necessary to make a decision about removal of the catheter. Differential time to positivity (DTP) and the ratio of quantitative cultures ...

(Biomed Central Ltd., 2014-05-22)
Background: Catheter-related bloodstream infections (CR-BSIs) have become the most common cause of healthcare-associated bloodstream infections in neonatal intensive care units (ICUs). Microbiological evidence implicating ...
Epidemiology of healthcare-associated infections among patients from a hemodialysis unit in southeastern Brazil
(Contexto, 2014-05-01)
Patients submitted to hemodialysis are at a high risk for healthcare-associated infections (HAI). Presently there are scarce data to allow benchmarking of HAI rates in developing countries. Also, most studies focus only ...
