摘要
This study used ethanol lock therapy (ELT) to treat intravenous catheter infections that had failed standard intravenous antimicrobial treatment. Of 15 patients enrolled, 13 were successfully treated with ELT. Twenty-one organisms were identified: 12 bacteria, 9 fungi. Eight of the 9 fungi were eradicated, and no patient became hemodynamically unstable on treatment.
