CLABSIs lead to prolonged hospital stays and increase healthcare costs and =
mortality. An estimated 250,000 bloodstream infections occur annually, and =
most are related to the presence of intravascular devices. In the United St=
ates, the CLABSI rate in intensive care units (ICU) is estimated to be 0.8 =
per 1000 central line days. International Nosocomial Infection Control Cons=
ortium (INICC) surveillance data from January 2010 through December 2015 (7=
03 intensive care units in 50 countries) reported a CLABSI rate of 4.1 per =
1000 central line days. Many central lines are found outside the ICUs. In o=
ne study, 55% of ICU and 24% of non-ICU patients had central lines. However=
, as more patients are located outside the ICU, 70% of hospitalized patient=
s with central venous catheters were outside the ICU.[6]. In recent years, =
peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) have increased significantl=
y, given some inherent advantages these devices offer [7]. Trained nursing =
staff can place PICC lines at the bedside with ultrasound guidance, allowin=
g quick central venous access in both ICUs and general medical wards. Since=
 PICCs are inserted in a peripheral vein of the arm with the tip advanced i=
nto a central vein (cavoatrial junction or the right atrium) by definition,=
 they are central venous catheters. The rates of CLABSI associated with PIC=
Cs are statistically similar to the conventional central venous catheters (=
CVCs) in the hospital setting[8]. In a multicenter study of 27,289 patients=
, CLABSI outcomes between the PICCs placed in ICU compared to the general m=
edical ward were similar. However, the study was limited, with an overall l=
ow number of events[9].

Catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) - Infectious Diseases Societ=
y of America (IDSA) definition: Catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRB=
SI) is the preferred term used by IDSA. The definite diagnosis of CRBSI req=
uires one of the following: Isolation of the same pathogen from a quantitat=
ive blood culture drawn through the central line and from a peripheral vein=
 with the single bacterial colony count at least threefold higher in the sa=
mple from the central line as compared to that obtained from a peripheral v=
ein (or) same organism recovered from percutaneous blood culture and from q=
uantitative (>15 colony-forming units) culture of the catheter tip (or) a s=
horter time to positive culture (>2 hours earlier) in the central line samp=
le than the peripheral sample (differential time to positivity [ DTP ])[11]
Central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) is a highly prevalen=
t problem in the intensive care unit. These infections are associated with =
over 28,000 deaths yearly and cost over $2 billion. Only through best pract=
ices, protocols, checklists, and establishing a culture of patient safety i=
n healthcare institutions can one reduce CLABSI to zero.[14] One of the sig=
nificant reasons for central line removal is an infection or suspicion. Thi=
s clinical practice leads to prolonged hospital stays and increased procedu=
res and complication rates.
Over the years, many guidelines have been established; some hospitals have =
a policy that for long-term access, the line can only be inserted by a dedi=
cated team that consists of the surgeon, nurses, and a pharmacist who will =
monitor the patient. In addition, when administering TPN, one port is dedic=
ated to nutrition. Plus, in some units, only nurses with training in centra=
l lines are allowed to infuse medications and other solutions. Evidence-bas=
ed guidelines show that adhering to protocols can reduce the rate of CLABSI=
. However, audits of doctors who insert the central lines and nurses who mo=
nitor the lines for infections are vital to ensure compliance.[10] (Level I=
II)
You'll usually be admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) so your body's f=
unctions and organs can be supported while the infection is treated. In som=
e cases treatment may start in the emergency department.
Approximately 85% of older adults have at least one chronic health conditio=
n, and 60% have at least two chronic conditions. Clinicians can play an imp=
ortant role in educating patients and families about chronic health conditi=
ons and can connect them with appropriate community resources and services.
