Central Venous Catheter Colonisation Among Critically Ill Patients in Intensive Care Units
Background: Central Venous catheter insertion technique and indwelling time are major risk factors for CVC colonisation. Colonisation occurs through microbial migration and biofilm formation along the catheter insertion tract.
