Benchmark data for occlusions

Hello,  I am looking for information regarding the collection of data on central line occlusions. Is there benchmark data available? Best practice information?   Thank you, Kathy

Any benchmark data would come

Any benchmark data would come from the published studies, so you would need to do a literature search and assess the data from these articles. There is no national database for anything but catheter-related bloodstream infections from the CDC. Lynn

Benchmark for Occlusions

some of us in home infusion send our data to SHP for benchmarking against other home infusion companies, but I do not know if there is anything out there for hospitals to bench mark against each other or if there is a national number like for line infections
