Central Venous Catheter Salvage in Ambulatory Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections

Guidelines for treatment of central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) recommend removing central venous catheters (CVCs) in many cases. Clinicians must balance these recommendations with the difficulty of obtaining alternate access and subjecting patients to additional procedures. In th...
