Effect of polyhexamethylene biguanide-coated central venous catheters on bacterial colonization in cancer patients undergoing abdominal surgery: a randomized controlled trial

Effect of polyhexamethylene biguanide-coated central venous catheters on bacterial colonization in cancer patients undergoing abdominal surgery: a randomized controlled trial

BackgroundCentral venous catheters (CVCs) are widely used in critically ill patients, including cancer patients, but are associated with complications such as catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs). This study evaluates the effectiveness of polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB)-coated CVCs in...
