Catheter related blood stream infection (CRBSI) in esrd subjects undergoing haemodialysis via temporary central venous catheter at HUSM: a retrospective cohort review of 2 year data

Introduction: Since its introduction in 1964, haemodialysis has become one of the main modalities for the treatment of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Central venous catheter (CVC) has become an important means in providing vascular access for haemodialysis treatment. Due to its nature as an indwell...

Conclusion: The prevalence and CRBSI rate are comparable with other studies. Gram-positive cocci are still the predominant species isolated from HD subjects with CVC.
