“…The catheterization duration (7 days) reported in this study was similar to those reported in previous studies (5,8,(15)(16)(17)(18), ranging from 4.2 days (16) to 12.0 days (5). This short-term indwelling duration suggests that the extraluminal route of cathetertip colonization predominated (19).…”

“…Consequently, acute RRT catheter-tip colonization may be less prone to lead to bloodstream infection than non-RRT catheters. This hypothesis is supported by two small single-center studies by Souweine et al (17,18), which compared dialysis and non-RRT catheter-related infection rates. Although not statistically significant, both studies (17,18) reported higher rates of colonization but lower rates of catheterrelated bloodstream infection in dialysis versus non-RRT catheters.…”

“…The catheter duration was 7 days, in accordance with previous studies (22,29,30). The median indwelling time reported in this study is 2 days longer than the 5 days reported in the overall Cathedia cohort (7).…”
