Catheter-Related Complications in Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia after Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant

(p=0.059). Gram-positive cocci were isolated in 57% and gram-negative rods in 26% of all infections. DVT occurred in 26% of all cases. DVT rates according to the presence or absence of a particular catheter type were 27% vs. 25% for Hickman (p=1.0), 37% vs. 17% for PICC (p=0.14) and 14% vs. 29% for IP (p=0.66). In patients with only one catheter type, DVT rate was 17% for Hickman compared with 25% for PICC (p=0.4). DVT occurred in 18% of patients 50 years of age or younger and in 47% of those older than 50 years (p=0.026). In conclusion, among patients with AML who underwent HSCT at our institution, we did not observe any significant differences in catheter-related complications according to catheter type. DVT rate was significantly higher in patients older than 50 years. There was a trend of higher infection rate with DCB transplant compared with the other transplant types.
