Risk Factors of Central Venous Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infection for Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy in Kidney Intensive Care Unit Patients

Conclusions: The incidence of CRBSI in our kidney ICU was 3.7%. Central venous CRBSI for CRRT was associated with catheterization of the femoral vein, long catheter indwelling time, compromised immune function and high APACHE II scores. Understanding pathogens and risk factors for central venous CRBSI in kidney ICU can help doctors prevent and treat CRBSI earlier.Blood Purif
