Using Data

Inserting a central venous catheter is a commonly performed invasive procedure. While much attention has been paid to the risk of blood borne infections as a consequence of using catheters, little notice has been made of another risk: during the placement of these catheters, the guidewire used can be left behind in the patient. The purpose of this study is to explore this complication using data collected by the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) at its 151 hospitals and clinics.
