Bacterial transfer and biofilm formation in needleless connectors in a clinically simulated in vitro catheter model
OBJECTIVE: Although needleless connectors (NCs) are widely used in clinical practice, they carry significant risk of bloodstream infection (BSI). In this study, we quantified differences in bacterial transfer and biofilm formation between various NCs. DESIGN: Prospective, clinically simulated in vit...
