          Abstract

          Infections cause significant morbidity and mortality for children receiving maintenance hemodialysis (HD). The Standardizing Care to Improve Outcomes in Pediatric End-Stage Kidney Disease (SCOPE) Collaborative is a quality-improvement initiative aimed at reducing dialysis-associated infections by implementing standardized care practices. This study describes patient-level risk factors for catheter-associated bloodstream infections (CA-BSIs) and examines the association between dialysis center-level compliance with standardized practices and risk of CA-BSI.
