Clinical Trial Summary

Investigators have designed a single-center randomized controlled trial to compare chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG)-impregnated dressing and standard dressing with respect to their effects on the infection outcomes. The study was condcuted in the pediatric intensive care unit in the 18 months period.


Clinical Trial Description

The single-center randomized controlled trial study aimed to compare chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG)-impregnated dressing and standard dressing with respect to their effects on the frequency of central-line associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI), catheter related bloodstream infection (CRBSI), primary bloodstream infection (BSI) and catheter colonization in critically ill pediatric patients with short-term non-tunneled central venous catheter (CVC) in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of a tertiary referral hospital in Turkey.. Pediatric patients aged 1 month to 18 years admitted to our PICU between May 2018 and December 2019, who had received placement of a short-term non-tunneled CVC which had stayed in place for at least 48 hours were included into the study. The patients were grouped with respect to the type of catheter fixation they had received, either with CHG-impregnated dressing or standard dressing, which were assigned in a randomized fashion. The groups were compared with regard to the frequencies of CLABSI, CRBSI, primary BSI and catheter colonization, as well as microorganism etiology. Any adverse event related to catheter dressing were recorded. Independent risk factors of CLABSI frequency were analyzed. ;
