Implantable venous access port infections are mainly due to coagulase negative
staphylococci and may be managed by antibiotic lock therapy with retention of the port.
Most of the time a vancomycin lock is used. Experimental data show that vancomycin may be
poorly effective in eradicating the staphylococcal biofilm in the port. Another
disadvantage of Vancomycin-containing lock solution is the occurrence of resistant
organisms and the risk of catheter occlusion. Ethanol-containing lock solution is highly
effective in vitro and does not expose to the risk of emergence resistance.
