Central Line-Associated Blood Stream Infection
A central venous catheter, is a thin tube that provides fluids or drugs into the body
through a major vein in the patient's chest, arm, neck, or groin. Catheters are long and flexible
tubes used to monitor or treat various ailments by draining fluids near or in the heart (Buetti et
al., 2022). CLABSIs are the most severe and expensive healthcare-related illnesses. Patients
suffer, and healthcare expenses, morbidity, and death are all impacted by central line-associated
bloodstream infections (CLABSI). Well-coordinated, multi-layered care can reduce the risk of
central line-associated bloodstream infections.
Safety Concern
One of the numerous values patients would expect from the healthcare system is better
and more favorable results after having treatment. However, the patient's safety is a
consideration that might affect the worth of the patient. Prescription mistakes are a prominent
cause of death among patients, and the frequency of death due to prescription administration
errors directly impacts patients. Patients aren't only affected; the healthcare industry's workforce
and infrastructure are also. Staff members are involved since the delivery of inappropriate
prescriptions indicates neglect and disrespect in the patient-to-nurse connection, which is one of
the staff member's primary responsibilities.
Before receiving any central venous access device assessment, all healthcare facility
personnel must complete proper hand hygiene. All sterile insertion barrier measures must be
employed, including a hat, gown, mask, drape, and gloves. Essential parts and connections must
be kept clean at all times. There is no proof that switching between clean and sterile gloves
increases or decreases the risk of infection (Reynolds et al., 2021). The danger of infection is
