Pseudomonas fluorescens CRBSI outbreak: complying with the standardization of invasive procedures is a step ahead in the fight against antimicrobial resistance.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
In the healthcare sector, the implementation of standardized procedures, such as those commonly employed in franchises to ensure consistent quality, remains underprioritized. Within this framework, we focus on the importance of standardized central venous catheter (CVC) insertion procedures to prevent healthcare-associated outbreaks. While antimicrobial resistance (AMR) may still not be the most prevalent problem in some institutions, its increasing significance certainly underlines the urgency of infection prevention.We aim to highlight this issue by describing and discussing an outbreak scenario of carbapenem-resistant (CR) Pseudomonas fluorescens bloodstream infections resulting from a deviation from the standardized CVC insertion procedure. This outbreak led to six episodes of catheter related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) in patients with hematologic malignancies, delaying their primary treatment. Nineteen patients were exposed, leading to an attack rate of 31.6%.
