This article serves as a reminder that effective January 1, 2011, Inpatient Prospective Payment System hospitals participating in the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services' Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting Program must submit health-care associated infection data to qualify for their full annual ...
(HealthDay)—Among critically ill neonates and children, the rates of central catheter-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) remained stable from 2013 to 2018, while population-based catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) rates decrease
Back to Basics: Driving Down the CLABSI Rate with Good Line Care American Journal of Infection ControlJenny Bender, MPH, BSN, RN, CPH
Results: The infection density during to 2014 July to September was down to 0‰. Conclusions: The application of Care bundle for central-line insertion and strategies are effective to reduce the infection rate in ICU, and it also decrease the length of hospitalization.Cited...
A Return to the Basics, An Investigation of an Increase in Central Line Associated Bloodstream Infection (CLABSI) Rate in ICU American Journal of Infection ControlBrenda B. Ehlert, MT ASCP, MBA, CIC
In 2005, the CLABSI rate for our trauma patients was 14.3/1000 central line (CL) days, a rate nearly double the mean rate of 7.4/1000 CL days for trauma units reporting to the National Nosocomial Infection Surveillance System. The issue: how do you reinforce the need to follow simple ...

Secondary outcomes included incidence of PNA, bacteremia, and SSTIs; MRSA bacteremia LabID event rate and CLABSI event rate as defined by ...
This increased CLABSI risk/prevalence underscores the critical interplay between these vulnerabilities and the heightened risk of infection. This correlation highlights the need for targeted interventions to reduce the incidence of CLABSIs in this particularly at-risk population. This study investigates the...
