The authors made 106 cultures from the endings of intravenous catheters used in children hospitalized in the teaching hospital in the years 1987-88. In 30 cases (28%) the cultures were positive. The most common cultures were those of Staphylococcus and Micrococcus. No correlation was found between the time of keeping a catheter in the vein and the number of positive cultures from the catheter. The children not receiving antibiotics had 2.6 as many positive cultures as those receiving antibiotics.
作者对1987 - 1988年教学医院住院儿童使用的静脉导管末端进行了106次培养。30例（28%）培养结果呈阳性。最常见的培养菌是葡萄球菌和微球菌。未发现导管留置时间与导管培养阳性次数之间存在相关性。未接受抗生素治疗的儿童培养阳性次数是接受抗生素治疗儿童的2.6倍。
