Peripherally inserted central catheters have a protective role and the effect of fluctuation curve feature in the risk of bloodstream infection compared with central venous catheters: a propensity-adjusted analysis

Abstract Background The prevention of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC)-associated BSI and central venous catheters (CVC)-associated BSI have been a topic of national importance in China. Therefore, we aimed to explore the epidemiological characteristics of central line-associated blood...
