A simple, effective and safe method for central venous catheter replacement.

A G Tsiotou1, G H Sakorafas.   

Abstract

With the possible exception of pulmonary artery catheters, central venous catheters (CVCs) have the highest rates of infection of all intravascular catheters, accounting for up to 90% of all vascular catheter-related bloodstream infections. The frequency of CVC-related infections is between 10-30%.
