Abstract：Objective:To know about the catheter related bloodstream infections phenomenon in patients with Peripherally Inserted Central Venous Catheters (PICC)and related factors,and to make the countermeasures. Methods:Retrospective research method was used to investigate the incidence of CRBSI in 2142 cases of pa-tients with PICC and the reasons from November in 2013 to July in 2014 in Xiangya hospital of central south u-niversity.Results:In 2142 cases,24 cases were diagnosed as CRBSI,and the incidence was 1.12%.In operation there were 5 cases with repeatedly puncture in the same place (Not pulling out the needle,subcutaneous explor-atory puncture ≥3 times),17 cases with indwelling time greater than 30 days,22 cases with indwelling vein un-der the elbow,23 cases with pipe discharge (possibly related with poor compliance of patients and local mainte-nance irregularities).Conclusion:Skilled catheter technology,meeting shorter retention time under treatment, the upper arm catheterization,complete mission content and patients'good compliance and standard maintenance are effective measures to reduce the incidence of CRBSI.
