Bacteria migration at catheter insertion sites presents a serious complication (bacteraemia) with high mortality rates. One strategy to mediate bacteraemia is a physical barrier at the skin-catheter interface. Herein a colorimetric biosensor adhesive (CathoGlu) is designed and evaluated for both col...
