No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Central venous access device (CVAD)-associated skin impairment (CASI) is a common problem in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. In this prospective randomized pilot study, dressing the CVAD exit site will be compared to no-dressing with respect to CASI and CVAD-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) rates in adult outpatient HSCT recipients. The purpose of this study is to gain information that can be used to design a large randomized controlled trial (RCT).
