17 Jan CVC MANAGEMENT AND CRBSI CONTROL
The main clinical problems related to CVC exit-site management are complications due to infection, in particular CRBSI, which impact negatively on hospitalization, survival and the incidence of mortality, thereby increasing hospital and care costs.
Understanding the sequence of clinical and care events that lead to infections allows us to develop rational preventive strategies. As has already been demonstrated, keeping to strict vascular access management protocols can lead to a reduction in the incidence of CRBSI, but the unity of the nursing team and the supervision by the person responsible for vascular access is also necessary and important.
