Risk factors for long-term catheter-related infections Jean-François TIMSIT Medical ICU Epidemiology, INSERM U 578 ESICM Barcelona – Sept 25th 2006
Routes of catheter contamination • Extraluminal: • Skin infection: • Hematogenous seeding • Endoluminal: • Hub contamination • Infusate contamination
Skin vs. hub originated CRS Long-term catheter-related infection are mainly hub-related CATH TIME SKIN HUB 7 15 18 21 24 110 65% 35% 50% 10% 30% 30% 35% 25% 50% 70% 70% 70% Guidet (1994) Fan et al. (1988) Cicco et al. (1989) Liñares (1985) Salzman (1993) Weightman (1988)
Many more data for short-term CRILong-term hemodialysis CVCs • Cuffed tunneled, silicone rubber elastomer catheters (Hickman type) • Frequent access • Totally implanted venous access ports • Mainly intermittent use
Main risk factors • Time • Type of devices • Rank of the device • Underlying illness • Handling specialized team, education • Thrombosis anticoagulants and fibrinolytics • Potential for the use of antiseptic and antimicrobials??
