Summary

The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a central venous catheter (CVC) care protocol, which was created using current guidelines, research results, and expert opinions, on developing CVC-related bloodstream infection in patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) until discharge.

Conditions

  • Stem Cell Transplant Complications
  • Central Venous Catheter Exit Site Infection

Interventions

PROCEDURE

CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER CARE PROTOCOL

Catheter care is provided in line with the CVC care protocol developed by the researcher: * For subsequent catheter care, a transparent sterile catheter cover impregnated with 2% chlorhexidine gluconate will be used. * The entry point of the catheter will be wiped with a disposable sterile skin cleaning applicator containing 2% Chlorhexidine Gluconate and 70% Isopropyl Alcohol, which will be provided by the researchers, and wait for it to dry. * Vein valve/needleless connector will be used. * Effective manual disinfection of needle-free connectors (hubs) will be ensured before each intervention. * Needle-free connectors will be replaced every 96 hours at the latest. * If necessary, the catheter lumen will be washed with a disposable, positive-pressure sterile washing system containing 10 ccs 0.9% sodium chloride to be provided by the investigators. * Pulsatile "give stop give stop" technique will be used in the washing process.
