Management

Short-term CVC or arterial line infection

  • Uncomplicated: no other foci of infection, fever resolves promptly ≤72h, no other intravascular hardware, no evidence of endocarditis or suppurative thrombophlebitis, and (if S. aureus) no active malignancy or immunosuppression
    • Coagulase-negative staphylococci: remove catheter and treat with antibiotic for 5-7 days; if catheter not removed, do lock therapy and treat for 10-14 days
    • Staphylococcus aureus: remove catheter and treat with antibiotic for ≥14 days
    • Enterococcus: remove catheter and treat with antibiotic for 7-14 days
    • Gram-negative bacillus: remove catheter and treat with antibiotic for 7-14 days
    • Candida: remove catheter and treat with antifungal for 14 days from first negative blood culture
  • Complicated: anyone not meeting above definition of uncomplicated
    • Remove catheter and treat with antimicrobial for 4-6 weeks, or for 6-8 weeks if osteomyelitis
