| dc.description.abstract | The NICU population is one of the most vulnerable for central line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) due to extended hospitalizations, necessary central line access, and prolonged catheter periods. Unfortunately, CLABSIs are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, as well as increased hospital costs. The objective set was to measure changes in the rate of CLABSI after implementation, ongoing education, and maintenance of our CLABSI bundle with the ultimate goal of achievement and sustainment of “ZERO CLABSI.” | en_US |
