摘要:
Central vein catheterization is frequently employed for monitoring, administration of drugs and parenteral nutrition in a variety of medical and surgical illnesses. Despite the widespread use of central vein access, both catheter-related infections and mechanical complications remain unacceptably common. In the last few years, data have become available to show that technical innovations and catheter maintenance protocols can reduce both catheter related bloodstream infections as well as mechanical complications. Future developments should be aimed at both educational intervention and biomaterials research. The former incorporates case-based instruction, problem-solving examination, and database analysis; while the latter will probably lead to a new set of catheters that are more resistant to infection and thrombosis.
