: Catheter related bloodstream infection; APACHE: Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation.
-
Key:a Assumed patient number = catheter number b Bijma’s pre-intervention CVC colonisation and CRBSI data was excluded from pooled data. c Mixed PAC + CVC data so excluded from pooled data. d Mixed colonisation data (including 4 arterial catheters) excluded from pooled data.
