Guidelines recommend using single-lumen central vascular access devices (CVADs) for the administration of parenteral

received PN through a dedicated lumen compared with those who had PN administered through multilumen CVADs.
Two studies included 650 patients with 1349 CVADs. CR-BSIs were equally distributed between the 2 groups. Both
studies were poorly reported and had significant risk of bias. These ...
