🧪 FAQ: Why do manufacturers of catheter lock solutions mix their solutions? Manufacturers combine products like citrate, heparin, and taurolidine to address the 'Triple Threat'—the challenge of preventing thrombosis, infection, and biofilm formation in catheter management. These combination products tend to be more effective than standalone solutions, as they target multiple issues simultaneously. However, it's important to note that none of these solutions can fully eradicate biofilm, which remains a persistent challenge in vascular access care. Understanding the science behind these formulations is essential for healthcare professionals in optimizing patient care.

🌟 New Research Alert! 🌟 A recent study by Sivaranjani et al. (2024) revealed that all hemodialysis catheters, from patients with or without infections, were found to be colonized by bacteria. Antibiotic resistance and biofilm formation were widespread and not correlated with either catheter group. Colonization happens. Antimicrobial resistance happens. Prevention is paramount. Is your patient protected?

🧬 Understanding T-EDTA’s Mechanism of Action in KiteLock 4% 🧬 KiteLock’s powerful T-EDTA formulation works by targeting calcium (Ca2+) ions, which are critical for the function of blood clotting, microorganisms thriving and the build up of biofilm. By effectively binding to and removing calcium, KiteLock disrupts the formation of clots, kills microorganisms and breaks down biofilm. This not only prevents catheter occlusions but also inhibits the risk of catheter related infections. Want to learn more about how KiteLock 4% can improve catheter care and patient outcomes?
