Study Summary

A CVC is a sterile flexible tube that allows a drug to flow from a bottle or bag directly into a patient's bloodstream. CVCs may cause infections when bacteria gets into the catheter and enters the bloodstream. They also have a risk of becoming clogged. When this occurs, the CVC usually needs to be replaced. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if an antimicrobial catheter lock solution can make it possible for the CVC to stay in place while treating an infection with antibiotics. The safety of the solution will also be tested. Your outcome will be compared to the outcome of patients who had the same type of infection but had their CVC removed. The antimicrobial catheter lock solution is made up of 3 chemicals: Minocycline and ethanol are designed to disinfect the CVC. Disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate is designed to prevent the CVC from clogging.

Primary Outcome

Adverse events include symptoms of discomfort and pain associated with antimicrobial lock therapy (ALT) as well as mechanical complications. Evaluation of symptoms of discomfort related to the ALT including pain, feelings of discomfort, irritation, headache, facial redness or flushing, feeling of drowsiness, nausea, alcohol taste, dyspnea, arrhythmias. Participants given a 0 to 10 numeric discomfort scale. Toxicity due to persistent bacteremia monitored at 7 days.
