Bacteremia associated with tunneled, cuffed hemodialysis catheters.
Bacteremia is a frequent complication associated with tunneled, cuffed, permanent catheters (PCs). The incidence, spectrum of infecting organisms, and optimal treatment for catheter-associated bacteremia (CAB) have not been clearly established. In this study, 101 chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients with PCs for blood access were prospectively monitored for infection during a 24-month period. Dat...
متن کاملRisks Associated with Vaccines
For example, it should be obvious that a route of exposure which bypasses the protective barriers of the gastrointestinal tract and/or the skin will require a much lesser dose to produce a toxic outcome. [15] In the case of aluminum, research clearly shows that only ~0.25 % of dietary aluminum is absorbed into systemic circulation, [16] while aluminum from vaccines may be absorbed at nearly 100...
متن کاملInfections associated with the central venous catheters.
Central venous catheters are of an essential importance to critically ill patients who require long-term venous access for various purposes. Their use made the treatment much easier, but still they are not harmless and are prone to numerous complications. Catheter infections represent the most significant complication in their use. The frequency of infections varies in different patient care se...
متن کاملProblems associated with indwelling central venous catheters.
Forty nine Broviac or Hickman indwelling central venous catheters were inserted in 36 patients with haematological and neoplastic diseases for indications including young age, intensity of treatment, and psychological attitude. Sixteen patients suffered 29 episodes of infection related to the catheter bacteraemia (0.68 episodes per 100 days of catheter use). Infections occurred much more common...
متن کاملInfectious risk associated with arterial catheters compared with central venous catheters.
BACKGROUND Scheduled replacement of central venous catheters and, by extension, arterial catheters, is not recommended because the daily risk of catheter-related infection is considered constant over time after the first catheter days. Arterial catheters are considered at lower risk for catheter-related infection than central venous catheters in the absence of conclusive evidence. OBJECTIVES ...
