Infection prevention bundles, a package of evidence-based guidelines implemented in unison, are effective for reducing central line-associated blood stream infections (CLABSI) in critical care newborn infants, according to a new study. The bundle helped reduce the number of lines placed, the duration of time used and the number of infections.
