NCT04756427

Brief Summary

This study an open label prospective observational cohort study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sodium citrate 4% locking solution in preventing central line associated blood stream infection in children requiring long term central venous catheters for home parenteral nutrition. Sodium citrate 4% is FDA-approved for dialysis catheters, but has not been formally evaluated for use in tunneled catheters for parenteral nutrition. The rate of central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) and other potential adverse events will be monitored for 12 months, with the option to remain in the study for a longer period of time.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Central Line-associated Bloodstream Infection (CLABSI) Rate

    Frequency of fever with positive central line blood culture events per central line days.

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Central Venous Catheter Thrombus Rate

    12 months

  • Central Line Removal Rate

    12 months

  • Number of Serious Adverse Events

    12 months

Study Arms (1)

Sodium citrate 4%

EXPERIMENTAL

All enrolled participants will received the daily sodium citrate 4% locking solution for CLABSI prophylaxis intervention and be observed prospectively for adverse events

Drug: Sodium Citrate 4% Inj Syringe 3Ml

Interventions

3 ml of sodium citrate 4% locking solution instilled into the central catheter daily during the period that parenteral nutrition is not infusing, and will be withdrawn and disposed of prior to resuming infusion of parenteral nutrition
