A Quality Improvement Program to Reduce Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infections in Neonates

British Journal of Medicine and Medical Research, 2015
Introduction: Late onset sepsis is a common problem among neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) population with central venous catheter (CVC) being the primary source of infection in the majority of the cases. Central line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) have been significantly reduced by care bundles implanted in NICUs.
