The Hidden Risk
Scrubbing the hub and using disinfection caps are standard practice. But neither prevents gross contamination from patient movement, bedding, or the environment from coming in contact with line connections or hubs. Every time a line connection is exposed, it’s vulnerable.
Gross contamination may lead to:
Unprotected connections remain an unaddressed risk in vascular access safety.
