CVAD complications, in particular line infection are still a major source of potentially avoidable HPN morbidity and mortality with a high cost to the healthcare system. The predominance of enteric organisms in our series raises the possibility of bacterial translocation as a significant component of the pathogenesis of line sepsis in HPN patients.
