A case of central venous catheter infection

A central venous catheter infection is a serious complication that can lead to serious health problems, such as sepsis. Below we describe an actual clinical case of a central venous catheter infection in the hope of raising public awareness of the disease.

Antibacterial Dressing “Transparent Dressing PICC Antibacterial”:

In clinical knowledge, infection is a sign of wound deterioration. For infected wounds, the first thing that comes to mind is "Silver Ion Dressing", an antibacterial wound dressing. Silver Ion Dressing is widely recognized in the treatment of infected or infected wounds due to its broad antibacterial spectrum, strong antibacterial effect, and effective absorption capacity. It can reduce bacterial invasion: the semipermeable membrane on the surface of the antibacterial dressing can block external bacteria and particles, preventing them from causing infection at the catheter outlet. The silver ion core continuously releases silver ions during the process of absorbing the exudate, which can exert a strong bactericidal effect in a short time and prevent bacteria from entering the blood through the subcutaneous tunnel. Absorbency and high-quality air permeability can significantly accelerate the healing speed of the catheter outlet and effectively reduce the incidence of central catheter infection. The silver compound contained in the core has a strong killing and inhibiting effect on various bacteria, the sterilization time is long, and it does not produce drug resistance and drug resistance.

This product uses:

In the experiment, the number of patients with central venous catheter infection and catheter outlet infection in the silver ion core application group was significantly less than those in the hyaline membrane group, and the extubation time was shorter. In addition, in comparison, the silver ion core is soft in texture, not easy to adhere to the skin, and avoids pulling on the tube when changing the dressing, which reduces the pain of the patient to a certain extent.
