Abstract
After microbiological identification, several points are to be taken into account: microbiological results, clinical signs of severity, catheter withdrawal or not. French and American recommendations are very different for coagulase negative staphylococci. Catheter withdrawal and antibiotic treatment are recommended by all the authors for coagulase positive staphylococci infections. There is no a clear guideline or studies on Enterobacteriaceae or Pseudomonas infections. Catheter removal and antifungal treatment are recommended for Candida infection.
