Comparison of catheter-related bloodstream infection between peripherally inserted central catheters and tunneled central venous catheters in patients receiving home parenteral nutrition: a meta-analysis [PDF]
BackgroundCatheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) remains one of the most severe complications in patients receiving home parenteral nutrition. Tunneled central venous catheters (CVCs) and peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) are the ...
