• Lead to higher mortality and morbidity rates
• Increase lengths of stay
3. Recommendations for CLABSI prevention in
any setting
• Continuing education
• Quality Assurance
Intravenous tubing protocols
Sterile technique
4. Recommendations for CLABSI prevention in
any setting
• Nurse-Patient Ratios
• Care Bundles
Hand Hygiene
Chlorhexadine dressings
Catheter hub disinfection
Removal of lines when medically permitted
7. Conflict in research findings
• Gaps exists in the area of CLABSI’s in::

have been shown to
significantly decrease
infection rates
