Study Summary

This trial will study how a daily "lock" of sodium bicarbonate in central venous catheters can reduce infection risk for children with intestinal failure.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children under 18 with intestinal failure who need daily IV nutrition or hydration through a central venous catheter. They must have had at least one previous infection related to their catheter, confirmed by blood culture.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the use of an 8.4% sodium bicarbonate lock solution in the catheters of these children when not in use for feeding or hydration, aiming to reduce infections.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include irritation at the catheter site, changes in blood pH levels due to absorption of bicarbonate, and possible interactions with other medications.
