Cancer patients need central venous access according to the different types of chemotherapy and support drugs for their treatment path. The presence of a central vascular access brings mechanical issues, thrombotic and infectious complications that can undermine the patient's health and the life of the catheter, therefore the management of venous accesses is clinically relevant. The prevention of infections remains mainly based on correct hand washing and compliance with aseptic techniques. This is a multicenter intervention study is composed by a single experimental arm (home) and a calibration arm (outpatient). The study is designed to evaluate that the complication rate recorded in the two groups are similar.
