ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the effect of bundled nursing interventions on preventing central venous catheter (CVC)-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs), aiming to reduce infection rates and improve patient safety. Methods: This retrospective (non-randomized) in nature, which may limit its causal inference study analyzed 200 patients who underwent CVC placement at a tertiary hospital between January 2022 and December 2023. Patients were randomly divided into a control group (n = 100) receiving standard care and an experimental group (n = 100) receiving bundled nursing interventions in addition to standard care. These interventions included strict aseptic techniques, standardized catheter maintenance, patient education, and collaborative management among healthcare providers. The CRBSI incidence and nursing outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results: The experimental group had a markedly lower CRBSI incidence compared to the control group. Patient satisfaction with nursing care was notably higher in the experimental group. Additionally, the experimental group experienced shorter hospital stays and lower antibiotic consumption compared to the control group. Conclusion: Bundled nursing interventions effectively reduce the incidence of CVC-related bloodstream infections, enhance nursing quality, and improve patient satisfaction, demonstrating substantial clinical value.
