Report
1 The review initially included five sources but after assessing their suitability, two sources were dropped as they focused on different aspects of infection control. Oh, Oh, and Lim (2020) evaluated how routine scrubbing reduced CLABSI in NICUs. This study showed that routine scrubbing techniques significantly reduced central line-associated bloodstream infections. This study examines how scrubbing hubs prevent CLABSI in a specific healthcare context. Paparella (2017) stressed the risks of not capping or scrubbing the hub. Although not an empirical study, this source provided valuable insights into the potential implications of disregarding hub cleanliness and emphasized the importance of scrubbing hubs as an infection protection tool. Finally, Ture, Blot, and Alp (2023) examined CLABSI prevention utilizing antiseptic barrier caps. The study demonstrates a significant drop in the CLABSI after routine scrubbing protocols. Additionally, the integrated review acknowledges the larger conversation about infection prevention measures and emphasizes the need to explore multiple CLABSI prevention methods on top of scrubbing hubs. Oh, Oh, and Lim (2020) indicated that routine scrubbing of hubs reduced CLABSI rates in the NICU. This suggests hub hygiene is crucial. While the other two sources did not directly report on the effectiveness of scrubbing hubs, they helped explain the topic by stressing the consequences of poor hub hygiene and examining alternate preventive strategies.
