Popis: | Prevention of catheter-related infection; usefulness and cost-effectiveness of antiseptic catheters in children Objective: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the antiseptic-impregnated catheter compared with conven-tional catheters in preventing catheter-related blood stream infections (CR-BSI). Design: Cost-effectiveness analysis; clinical trial, experimental, randomized, controlled, prospective, open label. Patients and Methods: A 172 patient cohort, under 1-year-old or less than 10 kg, postoperative cardiovascular children with central venous catheters (CVC) admitted to Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (UCI 35) at Hospital Nacional de Pediatria “Prof. Dr. Juan P. Garrahan”, since September 2005 to December 2007. Demographic and CVC data were re-trieved to compare: age, gender, weight, diagnosis, surgery, CVC days, costs and complications. Intervention: CVC Arrow, double-lumen, > 48 h of duration; intervention group: antiseptic-impregnated CVC vs control group: CVC without antiseptics (conventional). |
