ABSTRACT
Attempts to lower rates of catheter-related bloodstream infection have led to the adoption of chlorhexidine-coated central venous catheters (CVCs) in several orthopedic surgeries. On the other hand, there is still some controversy regarding the advantage of reducing catheterrelated infections. This paper reports a case of severe anaphylaxis to chlorhexidine-coated CVCs when used in spine surgery. Before exposing the patients to chlorhexidine-coated CVCs, the risk of complications including anaphylaxis should be considered.
