Abstract

Introduction:
Central Line associated Blood Stream Infection CLABSI as defined a single blood culture for organisms not commonly present on the skin and two or more blood cultures for organisms commonly present on the skin in a patient who has a central line at the time of infection or within the 48-hour period before development of infection. CRBSI constitutes a major clinical and economic problem and Antimicrobial lock therapy is commonly used for CVC management in a prophylactic modality in patients with protracted central venous access for hemodialysis (HD), chemotherapy, or total parenteral nutrition

Patients And Methods:
A prospective, open-label randomized trial conducted at a single medical center at Hemodialysis unit Ain Shams university hospital . 41 Patients were randomly assigned to receive interdialytic catheter locking with either vancomycin/ heparin or taurolidine/citrate; Taurolock at the end of each dialysis session and continuously since catheter insertion.
