Abstract
Although maximal barrier precaution (MBP) is recommended for the prevention of central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI), use of MBP for the insertion of central venous catheter (CVC) in our hospital was very low.
Highlights
Maximal barrier precaution (MBP) is recommended for the prevention of central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI), use of maximal barrier precaution (MBP) for the insertion of central venous catheter (CVC) in our hospital was very low
This study was intended to see whether improving the compliance for MBP during CVC insertion could reduce the incidence of CLABSI in the intensive care units (ICU)
MBP compliance for CVC insertion has increased through education, monitoring and feedback strategies with achieving the reduction of CLABSI
Summary
Maximal barrier precaution (MBP) is recommended for the prevention of central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI), use of MBP for the insertion of central venous catheter (CVC) in our hospital was very low.
