Peripheral inserted central catheter (PICC) is the most commonly used central venous catheter in hospitalized patients, and catheter-related bloodstreams infection (CRBSI) is one of the most serious complications during PICC retention, which can affect patient prognosis and treatment. Reducing the incidence of intravascular CRBSI is one of the goals of medical quality and safety management, which continues to attract the attention of domestic and foreign experts and scholars. Authoritative institutions at home and abroad have successively issued a series of prevention and control guidelines and expert consensus, and related research on risk assessment of CRBSI is also rapidly developing. This article reviews the risk assessment, prevention and control measures, and information monitoring and feedback of PICC-related bloodstreams infection, in order to provide reference for building a PICC-related bloodstreams infection prevention and control system.
