Complications during central venous access device removal in children: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Topic overview
This systematic review examines mechanical complications occurring during central venous catheter removal in pediatric patients, including catheter adherence, fragmentation, and retention. The study identifies incidence rates and risk factors to help clinicians anticipate and prevent removal-related adverse events in children with CVADs.
Key takeaways
- CVAD removal in pediatric patients carries risk of mechanical complications including catheter adherence, fragmentation, and retention.
- Systematic review identifies incidence rates of complications during central line removal procedures in children.
- Understanding risk factors for CVAD removal complications can guide safer procedural planning in pediatric vascular access.
- Mechanical complications during line removal may require intervention; awareness improves preprocedural risk assessment.
