The CDC Vital Signs (http://www.cdc.gov/VitalSigns/HAI/index.htmlpublication ) noted that there was a 58% reduction in bloodstream associated catheter infections from 2001-2009. A detailed report of the progress is available from MMWR at http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm6008a4.htm?s_cid=mm6008a4_w
Students in the NCLEX prep class read discussed several articles pertinent to care this past week. One of the articles was "Walk the Walk to Reduce Catheter-Related BloodStream Infections" in The American Nurse (http://www.nursingworld.org/mods/mod492/Bloodstream-Infections.pdf ). The article detailed the evidence-based procedure for cleansing the port of a central line. Some of the students noted that the procedure was followed in clinical sites where they were working, but not all. It all relates back to standards of care issues that we discuss in the Legal and Ethical Nursing class. As professional nurses, we must stay current with literature and not blindly follow hospital procedures. Differences should be reported to hospital management. Our patients' lives depend upon us.
