“…A recent systematic review of risk factors for CLABSI by Rosado et al found that duration of days of central line was a significant risk for CLABSI. 11 However, in our study we could not find a significant correlation with the number of central line days. This could be explained by the fact that our study was conducted during the sustenance phase of an infection control QI, meaning that the CLABSI insertion and maintenance care bundles were being meticulously followed.…”

“…Therefore, NICU staffs have attempted to reduce infection rates by using insertion and maintenance protocols to prevent CRBSI I. 1,2 This study aimed to determine the current incidence of CRBSI of our level III NICU, characterized the microbial profile, and then compare the results with other published reports and with a previous similar study performed in our NICU in 2011.…”

“…Monitoring infection rates is increasingly regarded as an important contributor to safe and high-quality health care. 2 Very low birth weight (VLBW) infants (birth weight < 1500 g) are vulnerable to infections because of their immature immune systems, frequent contact with hospital personnel, and invasive procedures. CRBSI are the most common type of nosocomial infections in this population.…”

“…Several risk factors are associated with neonatal sepsis, including low birth weight, prematurity, and use of invasive devices, especially central venous catheters (CVCs). 1,2 The definitive diagnosis of catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) requires proof that the CVC is the focus of infection. Therefore, the microorganism identified in the peripheral blood culture must be also present in the catheter culture, that is, in blood samples drawn from the catheter or from the CVC tip when the device is removed.…”
