Comparison of different doses of vancomycin andteicoplanin lock solutions in catheters colonized with Staphylococcus epidermidis: An in vitro, blinded, antibiotic lock study

Exit of catheter lock solutions from double lumen acute haemodialysis catheters--an in vitro study.

BACKGROUND Double lumen dialysis catheters are routinely heparin or citrate 'locked' to maintain patency. Heparin lock-related bleeding episodes and antibiotic lock-related toxicity have been reported. The aim of this study is to quantify the amount of leak during 'lock' procedures and to compare leakage for different double lumen dialysis catheters. METHODS In an experimental, in vitro study...

Elimination of intraluminal colonization by antibiotic lock in catheters.

Antibiotic lock (AL) technique for catheter related infection encompasses the filling of a catheter lumen with high concentrations of antibiotics for hours. The goal of AL therapy is to decontaminate the intraluminal surface of the catheter. However the duration of antibiotic therapy is not established. An in vitro model was designed to establish the time needed to eliminate intraluminal microb...
