Incidence of catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) in immunosuppressed hosts post solid organ transplant (SOT): a single center experience
Our findings suggest that intense immunosuppression in the setting of SOT is not associated with an increased risk of CRBSI in patients with renal failure utilizing TDC especially when a consistent and standardized protocol for the access and care of these catheters is utilized.
