Abstract
Using intravascular catheter dressing audit data, we evaluated factors associated with non-compliant dressing. Male sex and gauze dressing had a higher risk of non-compliant dressing; presence of one or more lumens infusing, central venous catheter, PICC line, implantable port and contact precautions were associated with a lower risk of non-compliant dressing.
