In situ therapy resulted in successful eradication of bacteremia in 87% of the episodes. Bacteremia recurred in 10% of the episodes. Although catheter design (Hickman and Broviac versus totally implantable central venous catheter) did not influence short-term eradication of bacteremia, totally implantable central venous catheters were significantly associated with recurrence of bacteremia (odds ratio, 10; 95% confidence interval, 3.1 to 33.3). In a multivariable analysis, this association between catheter design and recurrence remained statistically significant after adjustment for other factors that influenced recurrence in this study (isolation of coagulase-negative staphylococci and inadequate duration of initial antibiotic therapy). <\/jats:p><jats:p> Conclusion: This study demonstrates that patients with CRBI with a totally implantable central venous catheter in place are more likely to develop recurrent bacteremia. Management strategies to prevent recurrence in this setting should be explored. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1200\/jco.2003.03.012","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2003,9,12]],"date-time":"2003-09-12T17:44:46Z","timestamp":1063388686000},"page":"3520-3525","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":40,"title":["Catheter Design Influences Recurrence of Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infection in Children With Cancer"],"prefix":"10.1200","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Patricia M.","family":"Flynn","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Department of Infectious Diseases, St Jude Children\u2019s Research Hospital; and the Department of Pediatrics and Preventive Medicine, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, TN."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Brian","family":"Willis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Department of Infectious Diseases, St Jude Children\u2019s Research Hospital; and the Department of Pediatrics and Preventive Medicine, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, TN."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Aditya H.","family":"Gaur","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Department of Infectious Diseases, St Jude Children\u2019s Research Hospital; and the Department of Pediatrics and Preventive Medicine, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, TN."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jerry L.","family":"Shenep","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Department of Infectious Diseases, St Jude Children\u2019s Research Hospital; and the Department of Pediatrics and Preventive Medicine, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, TN."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"233","reference":[{"key":"R1","unstructured":"Broviac JW, Cole JJ, Scribner BH: A silicone rubber atrial catheter for prolonged parenteral alimentation.
