Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infection QI Project

Sponsor: NYU Langone Health

Summary

This study evaluates a daily electronic health record (EHR) alert designed to reduce unnecessary central venous catheter (CVC) use among hospitalized adults. The alert identifies patients with an active CVC and no documented indication, prompting the first-contact provider to document line necessity. The study compares alert and a secure chat intervention to usual care, with the goal of reducing unnecessary line days and related CLABSI risk.
