[Prevention of suppurative-inflammatory complications in catheterization of central veins]

Abstract

Analysis of the incidence of pyoinflammatory diseases in intensive care units has shown that the main reason for the onset of this pathology is introduction of catheters into major veins, with their following fixation with plaster. To prevent the above condition, we have suggested a new technique of catheter fixation using a film-forming preparation "Lifusol". The preparation closes reliably the inlet for the infection agent and reduces considerably the incidence of intrahospital pyogenic complications.
