Abstract

External ventricular drains are used to temporarily divert cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from an obstructed ventricular system. External catheter-associated bacterial infection is a common complication in patients with ventricular drains. Diagnosing ventricular catheter-associated infection can be difficult because of the primary neurological condition of the patient and the occurrence of an
