Abstract

This study sought to determine the incidence and characteristics of midline-associated bloodstream infections (MABSI) at an urban health system during the COVID-19 pandemic. A MABSI rate similar to the central line-associated bloodstream infection rate was found. A large number of MABSI were caused by Staphylococcus spp and Enterococcus spp, as has previously been reported for central line-associated bloodstream infection. Patients with MABSI had high in-hospital mortality rates.

城市医疗系统中线相关血流感染的流行病学。

本研究旨在确定 COVID-19 大流行期间某城市医疗系统中线相关血流感染 (MABSI) 的发病率和特征。结果发现，中线相关血流感染（MABSI）率与中线相关血流感染（CLABSI）率相似。大量的 MABSI 由葡萄球菌属和肠球菌属引起，这与之前报告的 CLABSI 相同。MABSI 患者的院内死亡率很高。
