Effect of a Second-Generation Venous Catheter Impregnated with Chlorhexidine and Silver Sulfadiazine on Central Catheter
This study demonstrates that the second-generation antiseptic catheter, impregnated with chlorhexidine and silver sulfadiazine on the internal and external surfaces, is effective in preventing microbial colonization and, in the group studied, is not associated with excess adverse events, hypersensitivity, or emergence of microbial antiseptic resistance. This study demonstrates that the second-generation antiseptic catheter, impregnated with chlorhexidine and silver sulfadiazine on the internal
