Marsh N, OBrien C, Larsen E, Alexandrou E, Ware R, Pearse I, et al.
Crit Care Med . 2025 Feb; 53(2):e282-e293. PMID: 39982180
Objectives: Central venous catheters (CVCs) are vital for treating ICU patients. However, up to a quarter of CVCs fail from mechanical or infective complications. Poor securement of CVCs to the...
