Intravascular Catheters

The results of a new method for detecting the contamination of intravascular catheters and drains are presented to assess its clinical and cost-effectiveness. Catheters are one of the most widely used devices in critically ill patients. The insertion of a catheter into the central venous system is an invasive procedure that can potentially lead to life-threatening complications for the patient. Catheters are a gateway for infection as they connect the external environment to the internal parts of the human body, causing catheter-associated infections. More than 15 % of patients with an established IVC develop complications, of which the most frequent and requiring removal of the vascular catheter are infectious (5–26 %) and mechanical (up to 25 %). Risk factors for catheter-associated conditions are crucial for hospital mortality.
