Sex-Disaggregated Analysis of Central Venous Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections in Patients with Cancer
In patients with hematological malignancies, men have a higher risk of CRBSI than women. This finding may be attributed to the high number of jugular vein-inserted CVCs, which in men may be associated with higher rates of skin colonization than in women. Special preventive measures such as earlier removal of CVCs in men may be studied in future.
