Value of semiquantitative cultures of blood drawn through catheter hubs for estimating the risk of catheter tip colonization in cancer patients.

Colonization of central catheter tips has been associated with catheter-related infections. This colonization is defined as the presence of over 15 CFU in a semiquantitative catheter tip culture performed after catheter removal. Using a simple pour-plate technique, we determined the microbial concen...
