Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Antibiotic and Antimicrobial Lock Solutions for Prevention of Hemodialysis Catheter-Related Infections

Sohail Abdul Salim et al.

Summary: Antibiotic and antimicrobial locking solutions are significantly more effective in reducing the risk of catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) compared to heparin. Both interventions led to a significant decrease in CRBSI incidence, with antibiotic regimens showing a 28% reduction and antimicrobial solutions showing a 32% reduction in CRBSI risk compared to heparin. No significant differences were found between the two interventions in terms of effectiveness.

Novel treatment dynamics for biofilm-related infections

Jose L. Del Pozo

Summary: There are multiple challenges in developing novel antibiofilm therapies, including the need for effective antibiofilm compound screening models, a lack of in vivo research, and the complexity of biofilm biology. The multifaceted nature of biofilms necessitates multi-targeted or combinatorial therapies to effectively combat biofilm-related infections.
