Abstract

Intravenous catheters are being widely used for many purposes in today’s medical practices. The most important complications caused by the catheter use are the catheter related bloodstream infections. Catheter related bloodstream infections are one of the leading causes of healthcare associated infections, which result significant morbidity and mortality and substantial excess cost. In this review, problems caused by bloodstream infections related with catheter use and their solutions are sum- marized.

Özet

İntravenöz kateterler günümüz tıp pratiğinde değişik amaçlara yönelik olarak çok yaygın bir şekilde kullanılmaktadırlar. Bunların kullanımı sırasında görülebilen en önemli komplikasyonlardan birisi kateterle ilişkili kan dolaşımı infeksiyonlarıdır. Bu infeksiyonlar sağlık bakımıyla ilişkili infeksiyon nedenlerinin başında gelmektedirler. Hem morbidite ve mortalitesi hem de maliyetleri çok yüksek infeksiyonlardır. Bu derlemede kateterle ilişkili kan dolaşımı infeksiyonlarında karşılaşabileceğimiz sorunlar ve çözüm önerileri irdelenmiştir.
