Which action is a part of the bundle of measures used to prevent nosocomial catheter-related infections?
◦ Chlorhexidine is most effective when swabbed starting at the insertion site and moving outward in a circular motion.
◦ During insertion of a central line, the doctor should wear a cap and mask, sterile gloves, and a gown, and the patient should have a full body drape.
◦ It is recommended that transparent dressings be changed every 72 hours to prevent growth of bacteria on the skin.
◦ Current recommendations support changing IV tubing every 48 hours on patients at risk for catheter-related infections.
