Background Data on time-dependency of external ventricular drainage (EVD)- and lumbar drainage (LD)-associated meningoventriculitis (MV) are scarce and discussions on the subject are controversial; no data exist for infection rates (IR) relative to drainage-days. For this reason, we conducted an observational study to determine time-dependent IRs a...
