  1. Risk factors for long-term catheter-related infections Jean-François TIMSIT Medical ICU Epidemiology, INSERM U 578 ESICM Barcelona – Sept 25th 2006

  2. Routes of catheter contamination • Extraluminal: • Skin infection: • Hematogenous seeding • Endoluminal: • Hub contamination • Infusate contamination

  3. Skin vs. hub originated CRS Long-term catheter-related infection are mainly hub-related CATH TIME SKIN HUB 7 15 18 21 24 110 65% 35% 50% 10% 30% 30% 35% 25% 50% 70% 70% 70% Guidet (1994) Fan et al. (1988) Cicco et al. (1989) Liñares (1985) Salzman (1993) Weightman (1988)

  4. Many more data for short-term CRILong-term hemodialysis CVCs • Cuffed tunneled, silicone rubber elastomer catheters (Hickman type) • Frequent access • Totally implanted venous access ports • Mainly intermittent use

  5. Main risk factors • Time • Type of devices • Rank of the device • Underlying illness • Handling  specialized team, education • Thrombosis  anticoagulants and fibrinolytics • Potential for the use of antiseptic and antimicrobials??

  8. Influence of the Rank of the catheter Nephrol Dial transplant 2001; 16:2194 573 CVCs, 336 patients, half-life 312 days 1 episode of CRS per 25.6 Pts months

  9. HIV > Cancer • 10-month (1995) Prospective follow-up, 12 hospitals, Paris • Hickman CVCs and Ports • Cancer (n=255) and HIV (n=201) infected patients Cancer HIV 3.78 vs 0,39 per 1000 CVC-days, p<0.001 Astagneau P et al – ICHE 1999; 20:494

Risk factor of CRI in onco-hematology: the major role of neutropenia Risk factors Nb CRI / nb of devices days RR IC 95% hosp vs home therapy 6/2732 7/4100 1,3 0,4 - 3,8 Neutropenia 6/1259 0/1473 15,1 2,6 - 86,5 New CVC 3/1118 3/1614 1,4 0,3 - 7,1 TPN 0/499 3/1525 0,4 0,0 - 69,4 ARA - C 3/981 0/378 2,7 0,9 - 8,3 BMT 3/708 3/2024 2,9 0,6 - 13,1 Howell PB et al Cancer 1995; 75 : 1367-75

  12. Risk factors for BMT recipients 81/242 BMT recipients with 100 episodes of CR infections Propective follow up, during the hospitalisation (7 to 187 days) Cox model, neutropenia as a time-dependant covariate • Univariately: More septicemia during neutropenic than non neutropenic days 17.82 vs 5.51 per 1000 catheter days • Cox’s model: • Age > 18y: RR=2.03, p=0.003 • Presence of VOD: RR=1.65, p=0.028 Elishoov H et al - Medicine. 1998 Mar;77(2):83-101.

  14. Frequency of CVC handling Astagneau P et al – ICHE 1999; 20:494 HIV 3.04/1000 cvc-days  20-40% days in use 5.07/1000 cvc-days  80-100% days in use Cancer patients 0.17/1000 cvc-days  0-20% days in use 4.9 /1000 cvc-days  60-80% days in use

  15. Change of the CVC extension set or the dressing more than once a week • HIV infected patients • Change of CVC extension more than once per week: • 4.8 vs 2.61/1000 CVC-days, p=0.03 • Change of dressings more than once per week: • 4.6 vs 2.54/ 1000 CVC-days , p=0.04 Astagneau P et al – ICHE 1999; 20:494

  21. Thrombolysis • Urokinase > 5000 IU every 1-2 or 3-4 weeks • Reduced incidence of thrombosis • Reduced the incidence of premature IVD loss • Tendency of benefit to reduce CR-BSI • Cost-benefit analysis? Adapted From Ray CE 1999, Dillon 2004, Solomon 200, Aquino 2002
