Microbial Colonization of Intravenous Luer Lock Connector During Active Infusions Among Hospitalized Patients
BACKGROUND: Central line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) result in patient morbidity and increased length of stay. While most CLABSI’s are due to extraluminal carriage of skin flora into the bloodstream, catheter hub colonization and intraluminal carriage remains a possible cause. We have...
