Evaluation of central venous catheters coated with a noble metal alloy—A randomized clinical pilot study of coating durability, performance and tolerability

The use of Central Venous Catheters (CVCs) commonly results in complications. Coatings with silver or metal alloys can reduce the risk associated with the use of CVC. We have evaluated the durability of a noble metal coated CVC (the Bactiguard Infectious Protection, BIP CVC) and compared with an unc...
